Fumaça Waterfall from Top

Located in the municipality of Palmeiras, the impressive Fumaça Waterfall lies in the heart of Vale do Capão—a charming and mystical village surrounded by lush forests and countless waterfalls. With an incredible 380 meters of free fall, it is considered the tallest waterfall in Chapada Diamantina and one of the highest in Brazil. The name "Fumaça" (smoke) comes from the mist that rises when the water plunges into the canyon below.
