Characteristics
The Serra do Roncador region is, to this day, the most unknown in the South American jungle. An immense mountain range from the Plutonic era that rises as a watershed between the Araguaia and the Xingu. It extends for approximately 800 km, from Vale Dos Sonhos, in Mato Grosso, to the vicinity of Serra do Cachimbo, in the state of Pará. The name "roncador" comes from the fact that the wind passes through the rocky walls during the night, producing a low sound that resembles the snoring of a sleeping person.
