    Get in

    [edit]

    The Trans-Amazônia highway runs through the park. To get there, take a bus from Itaituba to Jacareacanga and ask the driver to let you off at the park entrance. The highway is paved as far as Itaituba but other parts are unpaved earth roads topped with gravel that deteriorate during the rainy season, November to April, and need much repair work each May and June. The park can be accessed from Santarém, Pará, which is at the confluence of the Tapajós with the Amazon River. Santarém has an airport. Any roads usually require four-wheel-drive vehicles and river transport is normally used in this region.

    Bus from Itaituba around 10:00. Bus to Itaituba around 14:00. About R$30, one way.

    Car rentals in Itaituba are about R$100 per day, plus insurance.

    Taxi from Itaituba is about R$150.
