Route

An easily accessible trail, well marked, with roads in good condition. The trail starts at the Park's Visitor Center in Barreiro. With good signage, right at the start you can already see the road that leads to the waterfall. After 500 meters of walking, there is a fork: one branch leads to the trail to the long staircase and the other goes along the road. Ideally, go toward the staircase and return by the road to avoid climbing the staircase.
