Sete Pilões Waterfall (Seven Pylons Waterfall) at 1,855 m (6,085 ft) MSL, Acampamento da Macieira (Apple Tree Camp), Caparaó National Park, Alto Caparaó, Minas Gerais State, Brazil.

            The Preto river, which rises at the base of Pico do Cristal, forms the Farofa, Sete Pilões and Aurélio waterfalls, on the Minas side.        

The Sete Pilões waterfall is close to the Macieira camp and can be accessed by a 210 m / 689 ft long trail. Along its route, there are several practically circular wells with bluish water, which resemble pylons.

Camping at 1,860 m / 6,102 ft of altitude and that can be reached by 3,3 km / 2,05 miles of roads from the entrance of Pedra Menina (Espírito Santo State), being close to the São Domingos River.
