The waterfall is in the Chapada Diamantina, within the well-known Chapada Diamantina National Park and is 340 meters high, being the second largest in Brazil, smaller only than the El Dorado Waterfall in the Amazon. The name refers to effect caused by the force of the wind, which prevents the water from reaching the base, forming a visual view as if it were smoke. There are two ways to reach it: from above, walking 6 kilometers (3.7 mi) from the ecological base placed in the Vale do Capão, or from below, after a three-day trek starting from Lençoís. This video shows the waterfall from the top, starting from the Capão Valley.
