Cachoeira do Bisnau
Cachoeira do Bisnau is a waterfall in Brazil featuring several smaller cascades along a steep hillside. The water flows over rocks and creates natural pools where visitors can swim and wade in the shallow areas.
This location has a deep history stretching back to ancient times when indigenous peoples inhabited the region. Over thousands of years, the waterfall has shaped the landscape and left its mark on the rock formations.
The name references the wildlife of the region and its connection to the people who inhabit this area. Visitors use this spot to connect with nature and experience the quiet created by flowing water and bird songs throughout the day.
A short walk of about 500 meters from the parking area leads to the waterfall along easy trails with solid ground. Visitors should wear shoes with good grip and bring a towel to swim comfortably.
The site was featured in National Geographic and a television show, which raised its profile significantly. This exposure allowed a wider audience to learn about this hidden natural wonder.
