Poço Encantado
At the bottom of a deep
cavern, the cobalt-blue
Enchanted Pool is
accessible by a steep

Cachoeira do Buracão
Near the park's southern edge,
this waterfall plunges 394 ft
(120 m) into a vast pool.
The river then carves its way
through a deep gorge of
sedimentary rock. Strong
swimmers can swim down-
stream towards the trailhead.
