Very fun, great water slides, lazy river is fun and the water was perfect. I highly recommend you to try it if passing through.
Good on Tuesdays because it is closed on Mondays for cleaning. Very impressive structure for the price! The down side is that you are not allowed to bring food and drinks and their shop is way overpriced.
If you are looking for place to relax, this is it. It has a lot of pools with different water temperature. There is also a "river" you can use to go around the park. They have a restaurant in the park, so you can't bring your own food.
Great improvements! Could serve better food and improve changing room/bathroom installations.

(Translated by Google) The walk is very good, both for those who face the 1200 steps and for those who go up by car. The view is incredible, you can perfectly see the 3 municipalities (Barra do Garças and Pontal in MT) as well as (Aragarças - GO) and also the meeting point of the Araguaia and Garças rivers. There are benches to sit on, drinking fountains and bathrooms. The walk is worth it. (Original) Muito bom o passeio, tanto para quem enfrenta os 1200 degraus , como para quem sobe de carro. A vista é incrível dá para ver perfeitamente os 3 municípios ( Barra do Garças e Pontal no MT) como ( Aragarças - GO ) e tb os encontros dos rios Araguaia e Garças. Tem bancos para sentar, bebedouros e banheiros. Vale a pena o passeio.
(Translated by Google) I went by car and there is no entrance fee to the site. The view is incredible. There is also a trail with 1,200 steps to access it. (Original) Fui de carro e não tem ingresso para o local. A vista é incrível. Tem tbm uma trilha para acesso com 1.200 degraus
(Translated by Google) It was really a challenge, I did 3 trails in the week, but none of them tired me as much as the 1200 steps The view is really worth it (Original) Realmente foi um desafio, fiz 3 trilhas na semana, mas nenhuma me cansou tanto quanto os 1200 degraus A vista vale muito a pena

(Original) Um dos melhores posto turístico de Barra do Garças, todos que vem aqui quer conhecer, Tem acesso de carro e a pé pela escadaria, a vista é maravilhosa

(Original) A subida pode levar entre 20-25 min. A vista é a melhor que se pode ter de Barra do Garças e Aragarças. Dá para ter uma boa referência da região vista por cima.
(Translated by Google) We left the vehicle at the main guardhouse of Serra Azul Park and walked the route, passing by the Visitors' Service Center (with a drinking fountain), Disco Porto, Christ the Redeemer and going down the stairs. It requires a certain level of physical fitness, a hat, sunscreen... but it's worth it. (Original) Deixamos o veículo na Guarita Principal do Parque Serra Azul e realizamos a pé o percurso passando pelo Centro de Atendimento ao Visitante(tem bebedouro), Disco Porto, Cristo Redentor e descemos as escadarias.

(Translated by Google) The waterfall is beautiful, as is the entire trail of the Avoadeira stream waterfall circuit. Excellent for observing fauna and flora, the entire trail is within the Serra Azul State Park, managed by the Mato Grosso State Department of the Environment. Despite being in a Fully Protected Conservation Unit, the behavior of users is deplorable. Trash, drugs, loud music, disrespect for nature and other visitors. The trail is short, but quite demanding in some spots. It should not be done without prior preparation and without appropriate clothing. (Original) A cachoeira é lindíssima, assim como é toda a trilha do circuito de cachoeiras do córrego da Avoadeira. Excelente para observar a fauna e a flora, toda a trilha está dentro do Parque Estadual da Serra Azul, gerenciado pela Secretaria de Meio Ambiente do Estado do Mato Grosso. Apesar de estar em uma Ukidade de Conservação de Proteção Integral, o comportamento dos usuários é deplorável. Lixo, drogas, som alto, desrespeito com a natureza e com outros visitantes. A trilha é curta, mas bastante exigente em alguns pontos. Não deve ser feita sem preparo prévio e sem vestimenta adequada.
(Translated by Google) The Usina waterfall is one of the coldest I've ever visited, it's delicious! The water almost makes your body go numb. Unfortunately, on my last visit, despite the signs saying that no car music is allowed, some groups brought JBL speakers and it turned into a boring competition to see who plays the loudest music. Other than that, the place is beautiful and delicious for those looking for a waterfall on a hot Sunday. (Original) A cachoeira da Usina é uma das mais geladas que já visitei, uma delícia! A água quase deixa o corpo dormente. Infelizmente na minha última visita, apesar dos sinais de proibido som automotivo, alguns grupos levaram caixas jbl de som e virou uma disputa chata de quem toca música mais alta, fora isso o lugar é lindo e delicioso pra quem busca uma cachu num domingo quente.
(Translated by Google) For those traveling to Barra do Garças, be sure to visit the very beautiful waterfalls. (Original) Para quem viajar para Barra do Garças não deixe de visitar as cachoeiras muito lindo
(Translated by Google) The waterfall is very beautiful, the price of 10 reais per person is ok, but the bathroom doesn't have much structure. (Original) A cachoeira é muito linda, o valor de 10 reais por pessoa está tranquilo, porém o banheiro não tem muita estrutura.
(Translated by Google) Don't go if you have physical difficulties. The difficulty level is medium to heavy. Most of the trail is in the sun. Both the asphalt section, the dirt road and the waterfall trail. It could be better marked. There are signs dividing the trail into areas, when there should also be signs with names at the waterfalls, to help visitors find their way around the trail. We did the asphalt and dirt sections, passing by the Visitor Center, the discoport and the waterfall trail, and exiting at the Cachoeira da Usina club. All on foot. Not by choice, but because they wouldn't let us drive up to the Visitor Center under the excuse that they had machines to repair the road, but there weren't any, on a Monday, August 29th. The road is great, both the asphalt and the dirt road. We didn't see anything that needed work. We spent 5 and a half hours and only got to swim in 2 of the many waterfalls of the Rio Avoador, under a scorching 40-degree sun. We started the trail at 8:45. We didn't do the stretch to the Christ and went straight to the waterfalls trail. Anyway, as for the state park, we've seen better ones, considering the signage, such as in Espírito Santo, SP and MG. For example, there should be signs at the beginning of the trails indicating the level of difficulty and average trail time, not just kilometers. Most of the waterfalls trail is not recommended for those who don't go to the gym regularly, or for those with heart disease, knee disease or diabetes. I don't recommend it. There are stretches where the trail is narrow, with cliffs that are easy to fall off. It requires concentration. There are almost stone steps between waterfalls, on the waterfalls trail. On the positive side, there is drinking water at each entrance to the park and the staff is attentive to visitors. Going in the dry season, with temperatures over 35 degrees, take a hearty snack. Sandwiches, fruits, nuts, juice. Add eggs and chicken or tuna. Lots and lots of water is very important. I think we drank almost 2 liters per person and I felt dehydrated. My husband and I work out every day and are very used to hiking. Even so, we suffered under the extremely hot sun. It was very exhausting. Children, no way. We arrived at the Cachoeira da Usina at 2 pm. We ordered a motorcycle taxi thanks to a man who oversees the waterfall and the club at the power plant. It cost 10 reais to the Panelão restaurant, which was luckily still open at 2:30 pm. Be prepared. I think our biggest mistake was going during the dry season. It was very hot and the pools at the waterfalls had little water. (Original) Não vá se tem dificuldades físicas. Nivel de médio a pesado de dificuldade. A maioria da trilha é no sol. Tanto no trecho de asfalto, como a estrada de terra, como a trilha das cachoeiras. Poderia ser mais bem sinalizado. Há placas dividindo a trilha em áreas, quando deveria ter também placas com nomes nas cachoeiras, até para ajudar a orientação do visitante na trilha. Fizemos o trecho de asfalto e de terra, passando pelo Centro de visitantes, discoporto e trilha das cachoeiras, saindo no clube cachoeira da usina. Tudo a pé . Não por opção, mas porque não nos deixaram subir até o Centro de visitantes de carro sob a desculpa de que tinham máquinas para reparos na estrada, mas não havia nenhuma, em plena segunda-feira dia 29 de agosto. A estrada está ótima, tanto asfalto, quanto terra. Não vimos nada que precise de obra. Gastamos 5 horas e meia e só romamos banho em 2 das várias quedas do Rio avoador, sob um sol de 40 graus, escaldante. Iniciando a trilha às 8:45. Não fizemos o trecho até o cristo e fomos direto para a trilha das cachoeiras. Enfim, para parque estadual, já vimos outros melhores, considerando a sinalização, como no Espírito Santo, SP e MG. por ex. Tem que ter no início das trilhas placas indicando grau de dificuldade e tempo médio de trilha, não apenas km. Na maior parte da trilha das cachoeiras não é indicada para quem não vai a academia regularmente, quem tem doenças cardiacas, de joelhos e diabetes. Não recomendo. Há trechos onde a trilha é estreita, com penhasco facil para cair. Exige concentração. Há quase que escadarias em pedras entre cachoeiras, na trilha das cachoeiras. A parte positiva é água potável em cada portaria do parque e equipe atenciosa com o visitante. Indo na seca, com mais de 35 graus, leve lanche reforçado. Sanduiche, frutas, castanhas, suquinho. Reforce no ovo e frango ou atum. Muita, mais muita água é importantíssimo. Creio que tomamos quase 2 litros por pessoa e me senti desidratada. Eu e meu esposo malhamos todo dia e somos bem acostumados com trilhas . Mesmo assim, sofremos com o sol extremamente quente. Foi muito desgastante. Crianças, nem pensar. Chegamos à Cachoeira da usina, 14 horas. Pedimos um mototáxi graças a um senhor que fiscaliza a cachoeira e clube da usina. Foi 10 reais até o restaurante Panelão que , por sorte ainda estava aberto às 14:30. Vão preparados. Acho que nosso grande erro foi ir na seca. Muito calor e poços das cachoeiras com pouca água.
(Translated by Google) Very beautiful place, top, super worth visiting (Original) Lugar muito lindo top super compensa conhecer
(Translated by Google) There is no way to describe the feeling. For those who love nature and seek connection, there is this paradise, which is even located within the city. (Original) Não há como descrever a sensação. Para quem gosta de natureza e busca conexão existe este paraíso, que inclusive fica dentro da cidade.

(Translated by Google) I really liked the place when I went, they skate, there are people on roller skates, it is surrounded by places to have açaí and there are several options of restaurants and places to go at night. (Original) Gostei bastante do local quando fui, andam de skate, tem uma galera no patins, é cercado de locais pra tomar açaí e tem varias opções de restaurantes e locais para ir à noite
(Translated by Google) Nice place, we went during the flood season with the intention of having lunch, but.......we ordered a dish with chicken, they didn't have it, we ordered a portion of painted kibbeh, they didn't have it, they didn't have a portion of rice, disappointing, because it was Saturday... (Original) Lugar agradável ,fomos no período de cheias na intenção de almoçar ,más.......pedimos um prato com frango ,não tinha ,pedimos uma porção de quibe de pintado não tinha , porção de arroz não tinha , decepcionante ,por ser sábado ....
(Translated by Google) Nice place, but it was much better when there were kiosks there with snacks and everything. They removed them all for the construction of the riverside and renovation, but there hasn't been much difference or change since then! (Original) Local agradável, mas era muito melhor quando havia quiosques lá com lanches e tudo mais. Retiraram todos para a construção da beira rio e reforma, mas não se viu muita diferença ou mudanças desde então!
(Translated by Google) A very beautiful place. In July, when the beaches are forming, it is a great place to spend the afternoon and go for a boat ride, if you wish. (Original) Lugar muito bonito. Em julho, com a formação das praias, é um ótimo lugar para se passar a tarde e passear de barco, caso deseje.
(Translated by Google) There are boats for tours, Jet and it's really cool, besides being able to control the meeting of the Garças and Araguaia Rivers. (Original) Tem barcos para passeios, Jet e muito legal além de poder controlar o encontro do Rio Garças e Araguaia
(Translated by Google) Ahh, how can we talk about Barra and not mention Porto do Bae?! I like this place, both day and night. The acoustic shell hosts concerts, events, meetings, and city programs, and it is also a beautiful building. What to do for the day (preferably after 4:30 p.m.): walk along the sidewalk in the parking lot and follow the riverbank to where the boat dock ramp is. On the other side of the ramp, there are some huge stairs that are great for sitting and watching the river, just watching it, and also watching the people on boats or jetskis (a program that takes place every Sunday afternoon), where young people gather to spend time too. What to do for the night: there are several bars and options for quick snacks around. I recommend Cantinho da Massa, as it is a more affordable bar and restaurant and is in the middle of all the bars, and the people you see and feel are the same as the others. A great place to go out and meet someone (or just go out). (Original) Ahh como falar de Barra e não falar do Porto do Bae?! Gosto deste lugar, tanto de dia como de noite. A concha acústica recebe shows, eventos, reuniões, programas do município, além de ser uma construção linda. Programação do dia (preferivelmente depois das 16:30): andar pela calçada do estacionamento e seguir a beira do rio até onde está a rampa do porto de barcos mesmo, ali do outro lado da rampa tem umas escadas enormes e ótimas para se sentar e ver o rio, simplesmente assistir isso, e também ver a galera de barco ou jetski passeando (programação de todos os domingos de tardezinha), onde os jovens se reúnem para passar o tempo também. Programação da noite: tem vários bares e opções de lanches rápidos em volta. Recomendo o Cantinho da Massa, pois é um bar e restaurante mais em conta e está no meio de todos os bares, e o movimento que se vê sente é o mesmo dos outros. Ótimo local para sair e conhecer alguém (ou simplesmente sair).
(Translated by Google) At the port, these people meet every day. This sport is wonderful. If you want to skate or learn, just come with your skates and everyone will teach you in the best possible way. ✌🍃 (Original) No porto sempre todos os dias essa galera se reuni, esse esporte que é maravilhoso, você que andar ou quer aprender, só vir com seu patins que todos ensinar com a maior maneira possível. ✌🍃
(Translated by Google) Beautiful place, great places for dinner, lunch, parties, wonderful service. It's worth spending the weekend. (Original) Local lindo, ótimos locais para jantar, almoçar, festas, atendimento maravilhoso. Vale a pena passar o final de semana.

(Translated by Google) This trail and the Pé da Serra waterfall are the things that I love most about Barra do Garças MT.....I love this city, if you don't do these trails you won't know the city! (Original) Esse caminho e da cachoeira do Pé da Serra, são as coisas que mais me encanta em Barra do Garças MT.....amo está cidade, se não fizer estas trilhas não conheceram a cidade!
(Translated by Google) Full of springs, beautiful trails and special contact with nature. A simple and free tour, but a great adventure, especially for families. (Original) Cheio de nascentes, trilhas bonitas e contato especial com a natureza. Um simples e gratuito passeio, mas uma grande aventura principalmente em família.
(Translated by Google) A charming walk along a trail of about 1km passing through several river veins. When you reach the waterfall, the walk is worth it, a wonderful waterfall with warm, shallow water. (Original) Encantador, uma caminhada por uma trilha de mais menos 1km passando por vários veios de rio. Chegando a cachoeira, a caminhada vale a pena, cachoeira maravilhosa, água morna e de águas rasas.

Great place to visit and enjoy with family.
This is a very small mall. There are a few stores, a food court, and a movie theater. New visitors may feel lost. My visit to one of the snack bars was kind of interesting. The bar was nice, but there was no menu and the waitress seemed a little upset with my questions. There is a good coffee shop on the first floor.
People say that cinemas are Very good!!... There's a few stores It's not a big mall but it's the only one in Barra Do Garças

(Original) Maravilha de lugar, acesso ao guardião com o Maurinho, proprietário e guia local, conexão mística, pois estamos no mesmo paralelo de Machu Picchu e aproveite a brisa divina que sopra lá em cima!

(Translated by Google) If you want to feel a unique energy and a sense of inner peace, you have to come to Maurinho to understand what I'm talking about.

(Original) Se vc quer sentir uma energia única e a sensação de paz interior tem que vir no Maurinho pra vc entender do que eu estou falando. Aproveita e faz uma tour e fica num dos bangalôs que lá tem. Recomendo muito mesmo
(Translated by Google) Very rustic place with privileged access to Serra do Roncador. (Original) Lugar muito rústico com acesso privilegiado a Serra do Roncador.
(Translated by Google) Very beautiful place...Good for hiking. Guide on site (Original) Local muito bonito...Bom para trilha. Guia no local
(Translated by Google) A very special place. High spirituality, lots of silence, peace, direct contact with nature and very rustic. It doesn't offer amenities like breakfast, room service, air conditioning, meals, credit/debit cards or phone signal, but on the other hand Maurinho is very attentive and offers a simple kitchen with a refrigerator for those who want to cook. He also offers several unmissable paid tours to waterfalls and mountains in the region. I recommend it to anyone who wants direct contact with Serra do Roncador and doesn't mind staying in a rustic but very special place. The night sky is the most beautiful I've ever seen. (Original) Um lugar muito especial. Elevada espiritualidade, muito silêncio, paz, contato direto com a natureza e bem rústico. Não oferece comodidades como café da manhã, serviço de quarto, ar condicionado, refeições, cartão de crédito/débito ou sinal de telefone, mas por outro lado o Maurinho é muito atencioso e oferece uma cozinha simples com geladeira para quem quiser cozinhar. Ele também oferece diversos passeios pagos imperdíveis por cachoeiras e montanhas da região. Recomendo para quem quer um contato direto com a Serra do Roncador e não se importa de hospedar num local rústico, mas muito especial. O céu noturno mais lindo que já vi.
(Translated by Google) Great place, mystical, unique, place to stay and lush nature (Original) Ótimo lugar, místico,único, lugar para se hospedar e natureza exuberante
