Salgadeira
Complexo Turístico da Salgadeira
A waterfall swimming area at the foot of the plateau cliffs, with a restaurant and trails. It has long been a favourite weekend cool-down spot for Cuiabá residents.
Salgadeira lies about 42 km along MT-251, below the plateau cliffs. Here the Salgadeira stream forms small waterfalls and natural pools suitable for swimming, backed by red sandstone cliffs. The site went through many years of closures and renovation and reopened in 2026 under the management of Sesc. It is generally open Tuesday to Sunday, 09:00-16:00, with free admission; check official notices for current details. It is about 19 km from the town, so it can be visited on the way to Véu de Noiva Falls when driving.
Opening hours
Tue–Sun, approx. 09:00–16:00
