We depart for the the town of Ingá, home to the enigmatic Itacoatiara rock engravings and a museum containing fossils of giant prehistoric animals that once called the region home. The tour proceeds to Cabaceiras, a traditional town typical of the Cariri region, with houses dating from the end of the 19th century, and chosen as the setting for the recent film, “O Auto da Compadecida.”
Following an optional lunch and short rest at the farm of Pai Mateus, we’ll visit the Saca de Lã and Pai Mateus outcropping, with its rock paintings and exotic, mystical stone formations, among which the Pedra do Capacete (Helmet Rock) is the most spectacular.
