About this experience
Discover a new angle of the Caracol Falls through the paths of the first inhabitant of the region. You will meet the region where tourism began in Canela and Gramado, visiting the Vale da Lageana, in Caracol, in search of the Foot of the Cascade. In a mix of echo, adventure and history, you will be led along the same path that the first inhabitant of the Caracol made by inhabiting those areas and discovering the waterfall that, to many, was nothing but a legend.
