Treehouse Dreams and Wild Encounters at Mariri Jungle Lodge

Ditch the ordinary. Sleep in Brazil’s tallest treehouse. Hike, spot wildlife, and reconnect with wild nature at Mariri Jungle Lodge in Chapada dos Veadeiros.

Think you know adventure? Think again. Mariri Jungle Lodge in Chapada dos Veadeiros will shatter your expectations. This isn’t just a place to sleep. It’s a wild, living, breathing experience.

You’re not just booking a room. You’re climbing into the highest treehouse in Brazil. Twenty-five meters up. Supported by a mighty jequitibá tree. The forest swallows you whole. Macaws screech overhead. Monkeys leap from branch to branch. You’re in the thick of it. No filter. No barriers. Just you and the wild.

Ready to Get Lost?

Skip the tourist bus. Rent a scooter. Get lost on the winding roads of Goiás. When you finally reach Mariri, the jungle hits you like a wall. Green everywhere. Birdsong. The rush of a hidden stream. You cross a swaying suspension bridge—heart pounding, palms sweating. Welcome to your new home.

Inside the Araras treehouse, it’s all about the details. Recycled materials. Upcycled wood. Colored glass that catches the sun and throws rainbows across the walls. No plastic. No waste. Every inch built with the planet in mind. Even the bathroom is eco—dry toilet, sawdust, and a view of the treetops.

Forget about Wi-Fi. Out here, your only connection is to the land. Want a shower? Head to the communal bathhouse. It’s all part of the adventure. You’ll survive. You might even love it.

The Part Nobody Tells You

Think you’ll miss your creature comforts? Maybe. But you’ll trade them for something better. Sunrises that set the sky on fire. Sunsets that make you forget your phone exists. The sound of the wind in the leaves. The thrill of spotting a toucan or a wild monkey from your balcony.

Hungry? The kitchen serves up vegan and vegetarian feasts—fresh, local, and packed with flavor. But you’ll need to order ahead. Nothing here is instant. Everything is intentional. Want to cook for yourself? There’s space for that too. Grab a spot on the deck, sip your tea, and watch the mountains glow.

Wild Encounters

This isn’t just a lodge. It’s a sanctuary. Literally. Mariri is home to the first wildlife release center in the region. Rescued animals—jaguatiricas, anteaters, even pumas—get a second chance here. Your stay helps fund the project. Every night you spend, every meal you eat, supports the fight to protect the Cerrado’s wild heart.

You’ll see more than just animals. You’ll see purpose. Every building, every trail, every yoga mat on the grass—designed to bring you closer to nature, not shut it out. Want to hike? Trails snake through the forest. Birdwatch? Grab your binoculars. Practice yoga at sunrise? The platform is waiting.

Unplug and Reconnect

No TV. No fridge. No endless scrolling. Just the real world, raw and unfiltered. The Holy Mountain cabin? No doors. No windows. Just open air and the sounds of the jungle. Scared? Good. That’s how you know you’re alive.

You’ll sleep better than you have in years. Trust me. The wind, the stars, the distant howl of a monkey—nature’s lullaby. And yes, there are bugs. But fewer than you’d expect. The balance here is real. The jungle keeps itself in check.

Why It Matters

Mariri isn’t just a place to crash. It’s a mission. A fight for the Cerrado. Every guest helps keep this patch of wild alive. You’re not just a tourist. You’re a guardian, even if just for a night.

Don't Miss

The sunrise hike to Holy Mountain. The hidden waterfall at the end of the monkey trail. That street food stall locals whisper about in Alto Paraíso.

Your Move

Ready to ditch the ordinary? To trade Wi-Fi for wild skies? Book your stay. Pack light. Bring your sense of adventure. Mariri Jungle Lodge is waiting. The jungle doesn’t care if you’re ready. But you should be.
