Cachoeira do Funil, Waterfall in Mato Grosso, Brazil
The Cachoeira do Funil cascade descends 187 meters through natural rock formations, creating multiple tiers of flowing water in the Brazilian landscape.
Early Portuguese settlers documented this waterfall in the 16th century during their expeditions to map the natural resources of Mato Grosso state.
Local communities gather at the waterfall during annual festivities to celebrate the beginning of the rainy season with traditional music and dances.
Visitors require sturdy hiking shoes and water supplies to navigate the 3-kilometer trail leading to the waterfall observation points.
The waterfall creates a natural rainbow effect during midday hours when sunlight hits the water droplets suspended in the air.
