More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You lift off from a grassy ridgeline and the valley below rearranges itself: rivers push through the gorge, cliffs angle like pages, and waterfalls step down in intervals until they become a white ribbon. The first act is paragliding over Cocorná’s waterfalls — a twelve- to fifteen-minute flight guided by an instructor where wind and slope do the work and the world opens beneath you.
