Pousada Piuval combines a working cattle ranch with wildlife tourism in the northern Pantanal, offering one of the more accessible introductions to the wetland’s wildlife along the Transpantaneira road.
Simple ranch-style rooms set within the property’s grounds, each with a private veranda.
Home-style Pantanal ranch cuisine served communally at the pousada.
Horseback safaris, night drives, and canoe trips across the property’s wetlands and surrounding cattle pasture.
The northern Pantanal holds giant anteater, capybara, caiman and hyacinth macaw, with jaguar increasingly sighted on the property’s own land.
The pousada’s open pasture and wetland mix gives varied backdrops for photographing capybara and hyacinth macaw in a single outing.
The ranch’s shift toward wildlife tourism reflects a broader trend across the Pantanal of balancing cattle ranching with conservation income.
