One of the most incredible places I’ve ever been to

Couros Waterfalls is without a doubt one of the most incredible places I’ve ever seen. The power of the water, the rock formations, and the energy of the place create an unforgettable atmosphere. The guide was excellent, leading safely and sharing deep knowledge about the cerrado, its plants, and conservation.

One of the most stunning landscapes in Chapada

Couros Waterfalls is one of those places where nature truly impresses. The hike is moderate, and the views along the way are already worth it. The falls form several natural pools, perfect for relaxing and taking in the scenery at a slower pace.
