Buracão Waterfall

Departure from the center of Lençóis at 6:00 am (10 minute tolerance) heading to the city of Ibicoara, where the entrance to the Espalhado Municipal Natural Park is located.

Arriving in Ibicoara, we will prepare to start the waterfall trail. It's a 3km walk to the top of the waterfall, where we will have the opportunity to admire the incredible and refreshing view of the waterfall. Along the way, we can cool off at Cachoeira do Recanto Verde and Cachoeira das Orquídeas.

The trail to the waterfall is relatively quiet, with some steep sections and stairs. Upon arriving at the edge of the canyon, we will have to go down a wooden staircase to reach the river. At this point, we will follow the river by swimming or climbing until we reach Cachoeira do Buracão.

The waterfall at Cachoeira do Buracão is impressive and it is possible to swim in the crystal clear pool formed by it. After enjoying the waterfall, we will return along the same path to the park entrance, where we will have a typical regional lunch prepared by local residents.

We will return along the same route and arrive in Lençóis at night, around 8:00 pm.
