Luxury Holidays At Fazenda Barranco Alto Hotel
Presenting guests with the very best wildlife experiences, Fazenda Barranco Alto Hotel is a family-run eco lodge in the Pantanal area of Brazil. Bordered by floodplains, salt lakes, freshwater ponds and savannah, this 27,000-acre working ranch is home to numerous animal species, authentic cowboys and the very hospitable Leuzinger family - your hosts, Marina and Lucas (an engineer and biologist, respectively), welcoming you with the most sincere open arms. Enjoy safari drives in open vehicles, hiking the local trails, fishing, canoeing and horse-riding while observing hundreds of bird species, land animals and water creatures, along with star-gazing, cattle mustering or simply lazing on one of the pristine beaches nearby. Back at the lodge, there are just four guest rooms, making for an intimate, exclusive and laid-back atmosphere. Dining is a communal affair, with much of the produce sourced from the ranch itself, including organic meat, fresh cow’s milk, cheese, yoghurt and juice.
