Gruta da Lagoa Azul State Park, Natural limestone cave system in Nobres, Brazil

The state park extends across 12,513 hectares of land, featuring underground caves with limestone formations and a central blue water lagoon.

The government established the protected area through Decree 1,472 in December 1999, incorporating the former Gruta Lagoa Azul Reserve into a larger conservation zone.

Local residents participated actively in the preservation efforts by supporting temporary closures to prevent vandalism and establish management strategies for the caves.

Visitors need to contact the Secretary of State for the Environment of Mato Grosso at (65) 3613-7224 to arrange access to the cave system.

The cave contains columns reaching heights over 5 meters with diameters of 1 meter, formed by the underground waters of the Saloba River.
