Waterfall in the city!

Horto waterfall

Why locals love it

It's a beautiful waterfall and just 15 minutes from botafogo. Perfect to go after a beach's day and clean up the salt water while enjoying the nature and the fresh air. The trail is short, about 10 minutes and requires some attention cuz there is some spots that you need to climb a little bit, but it's easy and totally worth it.
