Beautiful waterfall with nice pool to swim,we we able to get right under the waterfall. The hike is very easy,we met lot of cows on the way back,they came to the waterfall. The cows were shy and waiting for us to leave. The owners of the farm were very nice and invite to the house for cake and coffee.
(Translated by Google) The waterfall is very beautiful! There is a lovely pool for swimming. Dona Rosa is very welcoming and at the end of the tour she offered us cheese and coffee. You can also buy the cheese they produce. I highly recommend the tour. Just be careful during the rainy season, as the road can be slippery. As it is private property, there is a fee of 25 reais per person.

A Cachoeira é muito linda! Tem um poço delicioso para banho. Dona Rosa é super receptiva e ao final do passeio nos ofereceu queijo com café. É possivel tambem comprar o queijo que eles produzem. Recomendo demais o passeio. Só cuidado em época de chuva, pois a estrada pode ficar escorregadia. Como é uma propriedade privada, há cobrança de uma taxa de 25 reais por pessoa.
(Translated by Google) The best welcome of all the waterfalls in the upper part. The couple who served us was helpful and friendly. The waterfall has a great swimming hole. The drive has steeper hills, but it's easy for those used to driving on rural roads.
The trail to the waterfall is very easy.
The place also sells excellent cheese at a fair price.

A melhor recepção de todas as cachoeiras da parte alta. O casal que nos atendeu foi solícito e cordial. A cachoeira tem um ótimo poço para nadar. O acesso da parte de carro possui morros mais íngremes,mas é tranquilo para quem tem costume de rodar em estradas rurais.
A trilha de acesso a cachoeira é super leve.
O local ainda possui um ótimo queijo à venda com preço justo.

Reviews
Cachoeira do Nego is a hidden gem with a challenging dirt road leading to it, lacking proper signage. Visitors are welcomed by the attentive owner, Dona Rosa. The trail to the waterfall is easy but lacks clear markings. Despite the rough journey, guests find the main waterfall stunning and perfect for photos. The entrance fee is R$20 per person, and some visitors recommend this place highly due to its beauty and pleasant atmosphere.

(Translated by Google) The road to get there is very bad and unmarked. The owner, Mrs. Rosa, is very attentive. But the place deserves to be better looked after. The trail is easy but unmarked. The waterfall is the most beautiful in my opinion. A place to swim and take great photos. R$20 per person.

A estrada para chegar e bem ruim e sem sinalização. A proprietária, dona Rosa e muito atenciosa. Mas o local merecia ser mais bem cuidado. A trilha é fácil mas não sinalizada. A cachoeira é a mais bonita na minha opinião. Local para banho é ótimas fotos. R$20 por pessoa.
(Translated by Google) A very beautiful place, a waterfall that's really nice to swim in!
The trail is open air and if you go during strong sunlight, it can be a bit difficult due to the heat, but the trail itself is very easy. The signage could just be a little better, because I'm a bit lost and got lost on the way back haha

Lugar muito lindo, uma cachoeira muito gostosa de nadar!
A trilha é a céu aberto e se for em horário de sol forte, pode ser um pouco difícil pelo calor, mas a trilha em si é bem tranquila, podia só melhorar um pouco a sinalização, pq sou meio perdida e me perdi na volta haha
