Cachoeira da Pedra Ancorada is a waterfall located within the Complexo Cachoeira da Capivara near Capitólio, in the region between the Chapadão da Babilônia and the Represa de Furnas, not far from the Serra da Canastra.

The waterfall sits just 200 meters from the main parking area, making it easily accessible.

Its surroundings feature numerous natural pools of varying depths, including shallow wading pools and natural jacuzzi-like basins formed where small cascades tumble into each pool. At the base of the main cascade lies a larger swimming hole.

A rocky formation visible from the overlook gives the waterfall its name — "pedra ancorada" meaning anchored stone. Descent to the lower pools is permitted only when water levels are low, with on-site monitors guiding visitors.

The gentle, shallow character of the pools makes Cachoeira da Pedra Ancorada particularly well suited for families with children. It shares the broader Complexo Cachoeira da Capivara property with the deeper, trail-accessed Cachoeira da Capivara.
