Resulting from a university extension action, the article presents elements and characteristics of Xapuri, State of Acre, Brazil, birthplace of the rubber tapper leader, Francisco Alves Mendes Filho, best known as Chico Mendes, from a historical and cultural trail conducted during the Vale do Acre Operation, part of the Rondon Project, coordinated by the Ministry of Defense. The town comprises a series of historic-cultural, identity and social particularities, which, at first, may go unnoticed by its visitors or even by natives. Considering the potential of Xapuri regarding tourism, the trail can be an attractive proposal for the sector and a tool for heritage education, as it is a hiking path that allows participants to identify and interpret the landscapes and the material and immaterial elements of the visited route, which contribute to its visibility, preservation and memory.
