Salto do Cabrito is a charming waterfall located on São Miguel Island in the Azores. With a height of approximately 40 meters, it may not be as grand as some other waterfalls in the area, but it offers a unique experience with a metal catwalk that allows you to walk on top of the waterfall and enjoy stunning views. The name “Salto do Cabrito,” meaning “jump of the goat,” is rooted in local legend, which tells of a playful goat that leapt into the waters below.

The historical significance of the waterfall is tied to nearby old dairy farms that relied on its waters for irrigation, highlighting the connection between the land and its agricultural past. The hike to the top is relatively easy and takes about 2 hours, passing by a dam and hot springs along the way.

Google Maps indicates that there is parking available at the top, where most visitors leave their cars. However, I recommend confident drivers consider descending the concrete road to the parking area near the waterfall. This option will allow you to avoid the exhausting uphill trek back to your vehicle.
