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.
Irene has provided us with several memorable and exciting vacations throughout the years. She has a great deal of experience and can provide a wide range of information about various destinations. Irene takes time to carefully look for vacations that fit your criteria and that she feels will be enjoyable for you. Each time we've taken a vacation that Irene has planned, it has been exceptional all-around, and is somewhere we would love to return to again. Each time we return back, we are quick to share how much fun we had on our trip and are back to ask Irene to help with another vacation shortly after. Most recently, we took a trip to Mexico in which we thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of our vacation package. It was another wonderful getaway! Thanks Irene for all of your help!
