Cachoeira das Sete Quedas, Nature waterfall in Alto Paraíso de Goiás, Brazil.
Cachoeira das Sete Quedas is a waterfall system with seven successive cascades located near Alto Paraíso de Goiás. The falls create several natural pools along a marked trail where visitors can swim and explore the formations.
The waterfall system gained recognition in the region after the nearby Chapada dos Veadeiros National Park was established in 1961. Growing interest in the conservation areas around the park brought attention to this location as a destination.
The site holds meaning for locals as a place to connect with nature and spend time with family. The natural pools and cascades are used throughout the year by people seeking to experience the landscape.
To reach the site, follow a marked trail for about an hour's walk from Alto Paraíso de Goiás center. Wear appropriate footwear for wet and uneven ground, and bring water for the journey.
Some pools have been naturally shaped so that flowing water creates a massage-like effect where visitors can relax. The Grandmother's Pool is known as one of these special spots with this natural feature.
