(Translated by Google) Lack of infrastructure! Since the place is a tourist destination, it deserves at least a marked trail. To get to the waterfall, you have to trespass on a private property!

(Translated by Google) It really is an extraordinary view. If it were a normal day, it might be more peaceful and calm. We went on a day when we were preparing for an event, so it was a mess. You have a view of the slabs and around the quarry and the fields of the old cattle drivers. It's really cool. The climb is a bit rough and ugly, it goes through the middle of a favela. It doesn't seem to pose any risks, but it would be better to demolish everything. (Original) Realmente uma vista fora de série, se for um dia comum talvez seja mais tranquilo e calmo, fomos em um dia de preparação de evento, então estava uma bagunça, você tem a vista de lages e ao redores da pedreira e dos campos dos tropeiros antigos, muito top, a subida é um pouco ruim e feia, passa pelo meio de uma favela, não parece oferecer riscos, mas seria melhor demolir tudo 😅

(Translated by Google) Beautiful place, a view of the entire city (Original) Lugar lindo, uma vista da cidade toda
(Translated by Google) Being one of the highest points in Lages, Santa Catarina, it's very interesting and offers a beautiful view of the city. However, there are some downsides, such as the lack of security near the hill. I went on foot and had to walk in the middle of the street with cars honking because there are no sidewalks and the neighborhood is dangerous. Another issue is the deplorable deforestation of trees, which made me sad because I thought I'd find nature up there, but it's just a dry hill. (Original) Por ser um dos lugares mais altos de Lages-SC é muito interessante e da uma bela vista da cidade, mas tem alguns pontos negativos como a segurança nas proximidades do morro. Fui a pé e tive q andar no meio da rua com carros buzinando pois não tem calçada e o bairro é perigoso. Outro ponto é o lamentável desmatamento de árvores, o que me deixou triste pois achei que encontraria natureza lá em cima porem é só um morro seco.
