The Estância Mimosa waterfalls activity in Bonito MS Brazil is a great option for anyone who enjoys nature walks and playing in crystal clear waters! Mimoso River is the main attraction, because that is where you will find the most gorgeous and refreshing falls!
Aside from being able to observe and appreciate nature, you will get the chance to jump off a 6-meter-high platform! This tends to be the highlight for the braver ones. But do not be fooled, this activity's lunch is also outstanding!
Estância is a word that can be used to refer to farms in Brazilian Portuguese. The word Mimosa is a playful name for cows and also resembles the river's name, Mimoso. This place likely got its name because it is a farm around Mimoso River and this would be a fun way to call a tourist attraction.
