Cachoeira Secreta
Cachoeira Secreta is a small, relatively undiscovered waterfall tucked into the Atlantic Forest highlands of Alegre, a municipality in southern Espírito Santo known as Brazil's "Garden City." Visitors who find their way here are rewarded with a peaceful natural setting and water that, unlike many mountain falls in the region, is refreshingly pleasant rather than icy cold.
This is not a heavily developed tourist site with ticket booths and signage trails — it is the kind of hidden gem that gives Alegre its reputation as a nature-lover's destination, sitting alongside more celebrated nearby falls like the towering Cachoeira da Fumaça and the tranquil Cachoeira Linda.
