Cascata do Avencal, 100-meter waterfall in Urubici, Brazil.

The water plunges down a semicircular rock wall formed by the Funil stream, creating a vertical descent against the mountainous landscape of Santa Catarina.

The area transformed from an unrestricted access site in 2004 to the current Parque Mundo Novo, which unified separate parks into one comprehensive natural attraction.

The name Avencal stems from the local fern species that grows on the cliff walls, representing the natural vegetation of the Serra Catarinense region.

Visitors can access the waterfall through two entry points, with a ticket price of 30 BRL covering admission to both the upper and lower viewing areas.

The park features a glass observation deck extending over the cliff edge and a sky bike system suspended 120 meters above the waterfall.
