We start with the most famous 380m high Cachoeira da Fumaça, the "Smoking Waterfall".
It got it's name because of the water coming back up in fine mist (and thus appearing like "smoke") due to the heavy ascending winds in the afternoon.
This fall is situated near the Valé do Capão and you need about 3hours walking to get there to visit from above.
Those having a trekking through the central valley of the park will have the opportunity to view the falls from below as well.

Mixila (Lençóis)

Chapada Diamantina's charming guides

With 80m the Mixila-falls are located in an extraordinary cânion with several pools where one can take a well deserved swim.
