| UBAJARA
is a small, friendly town nestling in beautiful hills. There are a couple
of simple but perfectly adequate hotels near the single church and
quiet square, together with one or two bars and restaurants.
It’s a pleasant place to
stay, but probably the best option is to head a couple of kilometres out
of town, along the road leading away from Tianguá, to the comfortable Pousada
da Neblina, Estrada do Teleférico (tel 085/634-1270; $10–20).

| Standing in splendid isolation at the foot of a hill covered with palm
forest, it has a restaurant and swimming pool, and is remarkable value;
you can also camp here. Another option is Sítio Santana, known as
“Sítio do Alemão” by the locals, which provides small chalets on a
coffee plantation ($10–20). The view from the chalets is spectacular and
it’s only a short taxi ride away, or the owner will pick you up from
town; just ask anyone in town to put you in touch with him. |
