Road estimates: OSRM / OpenStreetMap. Maps may suggest a different route.
Access source ↗The full circuit described is approximately eleven kilometers, with climbs, descents and sun-exposed stretches. Passing through areas of the old Garimpão adds the memory of crystal mining to the nature watching. The Salto de 120 metros is seen from viewpoints; the Salto de 80 metros, also called Garimpão, has a swimming area where allowed.
The Carrossel combines rock and water in a visually striking stretch. In the rainy season, roughly November to April in the pattern described, the experience may be limited to the viewpoint. In the dry season, more stretches may be opened, always as the park decides. Do not rely on the calendar alone to decide whether to go into the water.
The Corredeiras offer another sequence of pools and river currents. The return on foot is given as about 3.1 km. The internal shuttle lets you cut out part of the effort, and there is a boardwalk of approximately 230 meters from its drop-off point. This structure does not make the whole circuit accessible; discuss your group's needs with the park administration.
Check the day's operation, the last trip and the time needed to get back to the entrance.
General admission R$ 49; half-price ticket R$ 24.50 and R$ 5 for eligible residents. Transport, camping and special services are charged separately.
Prices checked on Sep 14, 2026. Confirm when booking.
The historical range helps compare outings; it is not the current rate and does not necessarily include a guide or transportation.
Reach São Jorge via GO-239 and leave your car in the park's outside parking area. Confirm the local stretch to the entrance. Internal transport to the Corredeiras is a separate service.
Full circuit of approximately 11 km. Internal transport and the Corredeiras boardwalk cover only part of the route.
In the rainy season, parts of the circuit may be limited to viewing only. In the dry season, more stretches may be opened, depending on the park's assessment.
The internal shuttle's operation that day, the last trip and the time needed to get back to the entrance; which stretches and swimming areas are open; the group's accessibility needs, with the park administration.
Do not rely on the calendar alone to decide whether to go into the water; swim only where the park allows it. The boardwalk of about 230 meters does not make the whole circuit accessible.
The green markers show where to start the visit. Check each point’s type: a property reference marks the establishment, not the parking spot or the exact trailhead.
