Discover more about Cachoeirinha

Cachoeirinha, along with Cachoeira dos Namorados, offers a delightful and easily accessible introduction to the natural beauty of Chapada dos Guimarães. Located within the national park, these waterfalls are a popular destination for locals and tourists alike, especially families seeking a safe and enjoyable place to cool off. The trail to Cachoeirinha begins near the entrance to Véu de Noiva (Bride's Veil) waterfall, another must-see attraction in the park. The mostly flat, 1100-meter walk meanders through the typical cerrado vegetation and gallery forest, offering glimpses of the region's diverse flora. Cachoeirinha itself is an inviting cascade with clear waters and a sandy bottom, resembling a natural beach. The waterfall is approximately 18 meters high, and the water depth is shallow enough for adults to stand comfortably, making it ideal for children to play. Just 50 meters away, Cachoeira dos Namorados presents another picturesque scene, with water flowing gently over the rocks. Visitors can even walk behind the 6-meter cascade. While the waterfalls themselves are the main attraction, the surrounding area provides a tranquil setting for relaxation and connection with nature. The park is generally open from 9:00 to 12:00 daily. Remember to sign a Termo de Conhecimento de Riscos (Risk Awareness Term) at the entrance.
