Macaquinhos, formerly known as Santuário das Pedras, brings together a sequence of approximately ten falls and pools along the watercourse that flows into the Rio Macaco. The walk follows the river and lets you notice changes in terrain, volume and depth along the circuit.
Cachoeira do Encontro, formed where the Rio Macaquinhos joins the Córrego Fundão, is among the highlighted spots, with deep pools and greenish water. Caverna combines water and a rock cavity; Luz, Poço do Jump and Sereno round out the names remembered. Banho Pelado is an area associated with naturism: confirm the current rule and respect privacy, without photographing people without their consent.

The road access has a final descent that requires attention. Roadwork or road improvements may change this condition, but they do not guarantee passage in every season. Include the extra distance on foot in your total effort if the vehicle cannot reach the entrance gate.

Historical range, not the current rate
We have not found a confirmed public policy for this visit. Contact the operator before bringing your pet.
Confirm the price and what is included when booking.
The historical range helps compare outings; it is not the current rate and does not necessarily include a guide or transportation.
Low-clearance cars may need to park about 900 m before the entrance gate. That walk adds to the distance of the waterfall circuit.
