Presidente Figueiredo
Presidente Figueiredo, Amazonas, 69735-000
The basics
Trails that run through the Amazon rainforest in Presidente Figueiredo take in all manner of views and experiences, and there are enough of them to make a multi-day trip here worthwhile. Hiking through the deep forest and spotting rare and indigenous animals, birds, and plants is just one option—some trails and tracks take intrepid explorers to local caves and an abundance of nearby waterfalls just waiting to be swum in. Day trip tours are frequent and usually focus on specific highlights, such as the caves or waterfalls.

Also, there is no other people at the waterfalls may be beacause we visited on a weekday.

Things to know before you go
Most of the Presidente Figueiredo trails are free to use, but some nominal fees may be requested.
It can get hot and very humid here—bring a hat and plenty of water.
The rainforest is protected, so keep to the paths at all times.
How to get there
The most cost-effective way to get to Presidente Figueiredo is by using the regular buses that travel from Manaus, which cost around R$20 per person. Alternatively, many operators offer private transfers from neighboring cities like Manaus. To get to Manaus from abroad, fly into Eduardo Gomes International Airport.
When to get there
There are no time restrictions here, however, to get the most out of your day in Presidente Figueiredo, it makes sense to travel there earlier in the morning so you have time to see as many of the falls and caves as possible. The morning is also cooler, and the falls can get busier during the late afternoon.
Swimming In the Amazon at Presidente Figueiredo
As well as plenty of scenic trails to hike within the jungle of Presidente Figueiredo, there are many pools, waterfalls, and underground swimming holes where you can cool off, from Judeia Grotto (Gruta da Judéia) to Urubui Park (Parque Urubuí). Swimming in the waterfalls of the Amazon rainforest is a unique experience, and by following the Presidente Figueiredo trails, you will come across spots beckoning for you to dip your toes in.
