Caracol Falls

Caracol Falls, or Cascata do Caracol, is a 426-foot (130 meter) waterfall about 4.35 miles (7.00 km) from Canela, Brazil in Caracol State Park (Parque do Caracol). It is formed by the Caracol River and cuts out of basalt cliffs in the Serra Geral mountain range, falling into the Vale da Lageana. Caracol Falls has long attracted visitors and is the second most popular natural tourist attraction in Brazil, trailing only Iguazu Falls. In 2009, it received more than 289,000 visitors. There is a nearby 100-foot observation tower that offers an elevator and a panoramic view, as well as a cable car that gives tourists an aerial view of the waterfall. The area also provides a restaurant and craft stalls.

Swan Family Travel was the perfect way to plan our trip especially with the added complication of changing regulations due to COVID. Amanda kept us informed about what was required and provided all the information necessary to allow our trip to start and end smoothly. As we were preparing, she was also thoughtful about accommodations that could be required prior to leaving and when coming home. She thought of everything. We will be using Swan Family Travel for our future travels and will be recommending them to others....
