The Sana is rich in water resources
and with its visual and wild places and warm climate attracts tourists
for its waterfalls on holidays, the weekends and holidays.
In an attempt to contain environmental degradation due to tourism
disorganized, the NGO Small Seed monitors the main natural attractions
of Sana and has as its main objective the development of ecological
awareness in the region.
Each visitor is registered in the "Order" the trail leading
to the waterfalls of the circuit Water. It prohibited the access
of domestic animals, sound equipment and BBQ or any other type of
food, rather preventing the degradation of the environment.
For a clean track and flagged for about 20 minutes, guided by a local
guide, we come to the Waterfall of Escorrega. For children who like
to have fun escorregando a "toboágua" this is the
best natural waterfall, has pools with little current, making the
game safe for all ages.
Walking ahead, including the "Recanto of Butterflies" and
to follow-Mother Waterfall, which takes this name because the profile
of a woman marked in the rock, similar to the image of Our Lady.
The basis of the fall already ouvíamos the screams of tourists
and local that is played in a slide in the volume of water throwing
in a pool below, a jump around 12 meters high at 90 degrees inclination.
Sentamos and stayed there for photographing, filming and enjoying
the peripécias of "crazy" that surfavam, saltavam
and escorregavam away. The Matheus all the time soltava a "NOOOSSAAA",
delighted with the "madness" of young people.
In a moment, filled up courage and wanted in any way "to play" in
that slide. Explain to him the various reasons for which we would
not allow such a feat (security, the size of it, etc.). Nevertheless
insisted, because: - "we are not in Muller Family Adventure"?
With patience, once again we explain that adventure has limit and
that was our. In this case, our adventure would observe the "adventurous".
Half of it was dissatisfied with that little face, "I wanted
to go ..." Until the guide has called us to continue the trail
to the waterfall Seven Falls, where we could enter the water.
Before we pass by the Waterfall of Father avistando it from above,
because to reach the fall presents a great degree of difficulty,
all roads leading to it are complicated. Ali from the top, younger
venture is jumping from a height of about 16 meters.
Avistamos also a piece of the Son of Waterfall, which is between
the Father and Mother, but only has access to it who does the so-called "circuit
of water" and come through the waterfall-Father, a dangerous
path and not advisable to children. She has another tobogã that
leads directly to the well-da Cachoeira Mother. His descent is very
exciting and fast, but the radical point of causing escoriações
on the back, indicated only for those who are instructed and accompanied
by someone who knows.
At the end of the trail, we came to the Waterfall of Sete Quedas
which is so named because it presents in its course represented a
drop of water in a natural staircase. With the guidance of the guide,
entering below the waterfalls and we feel as if through a tube. The
experience was very tasty.
Before returning, we are enjoying a "corner" of particular
waterfall, where a tremendous peace, listening to barulhinho water,
we are there by taking advantage of the three hydro and looking at
the sky.
We know well the whole circuit of Water, a water park natural "formed
by the Seven Falls, Waterfall-Mother, Father and Waterfall-Waterfall-Son,
who along with the Escorrega to form the Waterfalls of Rio de Pombo
Breaststroke.
The name of the river was due to more one of the wonders of Sana,
the rock formation known as "the Breaststroke Pombo" which,
seen from certain angles, similar to the figure of a pigeon pousado
one stone on the 1.120m high. To get there we must reserve a full
day, access is permitted only with accompanying guides (contact with
the Group of Ecological Protection Small Seed) and the maximum 15
people per group.
On average, is up for three hours and two to fall, told us that it
is worth going up through the visual, where the summit may be seen
the coast of Macae, Cabo Frio, Buzios, Rio das Ostras and Barra de
Saint John
We are tempted to climb, but by guiding the guides of Little Seed,
abandoning therefore felt it would be very pulled the Matheus. We
as an incentive to one day return to Sana. |
