Cachoeira Do Barata
Cachoeira Do Barata
Cachoeira do Barata is a waterfall located in the Serra do Tepequém, in the municipality of Amajari, Roraima.
It sits along the Igarapé do Barata and is one of the most popular natural attractions in the area, drawing visitors with crystal-clear water, rapids, and a series of natural pools.
The name traces back to the old gold-mining era, when workers' shelters along the stream were overrun with cockroaches (baratas), though a second local account credits a soldier stationed at a nearby police post who carried the same nickname.
Reaching the waterfall requires a hike through lush Amazonian terrain, with trails that can be moist and uneven.
The site is well regarded among visitors exploring the broader Serra do Tepequém plateau and pairs naturally with other nearby natural features in the region.
