I went here on January 11 and 13, 2021. My main objective was to picture some birds and maybe other wildlife. On the first day many waterfalls were closed. I started going around the circuito das lagoas. I saw a good deal of birds there. Around 11.00 I walked towards the cachoeira do Capao, the only one open to visit this day. The waterfall was nice. There were quite many other visitors. The second day was nicer.I hired a bike at the entrance, and went for the cachoeira da Farofa and the canyon at the other extreme of the park. It was interesting to have to pass through some large bodies of water crossing over the roads and trails. The waterfall was nice, and drew many visitors. The great dusky swift is a bird that hangs out there. The canyon was alright too, although I didn't have time to explore it properly, and I drowned my phone while crossing the river to get there. Some kind of rail to hold on to while crossing would be nice there. Generally, the landscape is awesome. A serious drawback is that the place is hard to reach unless you have your own car. Taxis don't want to bring you over the entrance road, because it is in a bad condition, and the walk of 5 km lets you start the trails somewhat fatigued already. There is a bike rent in town, but it opens only at 8.00, at which time the park is already open.
