More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step out of an air-conditioned vehicle and the forest answers: birds call through broken shafts of light, and the roar in the distance pulls you toward the falls. The guide leads a short 1.5 km boardwalk through Atlantic Forest—roots and ferns crowd the trail, water daring you to follow every rivulet to its source. At the end, the path opens to the Devil’s Throat viewpoint; spray hits your face like a cold reminder of scale as water pushes forward over basalt.
