Waterfalls & Natural Pools

Located within the Chapada dos Guimarães National Park, these sites represent the diverse hydrology of the Mato Grosso Cerrado. The collection features the 86-meter Véu de Noiva drop and the sequential falls of the Circuito das Cachoeiras, a seven-kilometer trail following the Coxipó-mirim river. These sandstone-carved features include natural swimming holes like Prainha and tiered cascades such as Degraus, all set against ancient rock formations and native gallery forests.
