Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Beautiful waterfall, certainly among the most beautiful in Brazil.
Crystal clear waters and great for swimming as they are not as cold as the waterfalls in the south and southeast.
The main well is not recommended for those who cannot swim, as it is 2 meters deep and has a current. A little further on there is a section of the river that is shallower and is recommended for those who don't know how to swim.

This amazing treasure of the nature is very accessible by foot (once you get there with an off road car). It´s cheap to get into this "atraction" (you have to pay the native that owes the place 10-20 reais ( around 5 dollars), i´m not sure). Take your swimsuits, snorkels and dive into the magic. You can "climb" the different "levels" of the waterfall and have a free natural massage. It´s not dangerous as other waterfalls may be. I actually jumped from it! It was amazing! There´s a barbecue space that can be rented and bathroom (and a rustic shower) facilities. I loved the afternoon there.

Absolutley blue and clean water, small fall and the visitors can jump in. It looks like a blue lagoon and there's no limit for quantity of visitors! It worth even if it is just for photos! Amazing!

It’s so nice to be in contact with the nature specially when it’s possible to be part of it. This waterfall is just beautiful with such a crystal clear water.

Definitely a must! Christal clear water, lot's of fish simply great to snorkel in. There were sitting areas so one could even bring a picnic. Do bring bug repellant.

Gostaria de saber se quem for acampar na cachoeira da formiga também tem que pagar a entrada?
Written 19 July 2019
Quando fui, não fiquei acampada, só passei algumas horas. E todas as taxas foram pagas pela empresa de turismo. Você pode entrar em contato com a empresa Cerrado Rupestre, eles vão tirar sua dúvida, com certeza.
Written 21 July 2019
Acredito q eram 20,00 mas fechamos o pacote com tudo incluso.
Written 23 September 2018
Acredito que não, por se tratar de propriedade particular.

Para ir de Prai Norte To fica muito longe ? O acesso e ruim ?
Written 3 January 2018
Sabrina, não conheço Praia Norte, mas, de qualquer maneira vc terá que ir até Ponte Alta do Tocantis que é o Portal do Jalapão.
A partir de Ponte Alta vc precisará de um carro com tração nas 4 rodas, senão não chegará ao destino.
As estradas são de areia o que dificulta muito o transito nelas. Além de um carro mto bom o motorista precisa ter experiência nesse tipo de estrada.
Sugiro contratar um guia. Vc viajará mais segura.

Queria saber quanto sairia um pacote de fortaleza(Ceará), com 20 pessoas com direito a hospedagem ?..
Written 8 November 2017
O ideal seria vc contactar uma agencia de turismo, eles tem pacotes com tudo incluido... eu fui com o SESC SC, paguei 3.300,00 com tudo incluido... provavelmente o SESC de Fortaleza tem esse pacote, ou se não tiver eles providenciaim, principalmente para grupo fechado fica até melhor..

a cidade mais proxima é mateiros, lá tem varias pousadas bem agradáveis.

Queria passar um dia na cachoeira formiga, percebi que o acesso de Palmas até Mateiros é difícil e exige um 4x4, será que existe alguma expedição que faça só a cachoeira formiga e algumas atrações próximas?
Written 18 July 2017
Olá! Sim, existem opções, tanto de aluguel de carro 4x4, como de empresas que levam, inclusive com guias muito bons e também com a hospedagem no pacote! Mas vale a pena pesquisar preços, pois existem alguns bem caros!! Além da Cachoeira do Formiga, os fervedouros e as dunas são imperdíveis!! Meu pacote foi com Beto Monteiro e recomendo!!
