The Rio Gorutuba is a river in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, flowing through areas including the municipalities of Janaúba and Nova Porteirinha. The river is central to the Parque Ecológico do Gorutuba, a public park in Janaúba featuring a walking trail and fitness areas along its banks. For paddlers, specific access points and routes have been documented. One established kayaking tour takes place on the river between the Gameleiras and Novo Paraíso neighborhoods. Another documented route is a 9.29-kilometer traverse from Taquaril to a feature known as Cachoeira Coca Cola, which involves a 37-meter elevation change. A shorter, more technical section referred to as "Garganta" covers 6.13 kilometers with a more significant 105-meter elevation change. For a more relaxed experience, a 6.19-kilometer circuit around an island at the Bico da Pedra Dam is also an option. The river receives the Mosquito River as a tributary. The surrounding region offers trails used for hiking and mountain biking, indicating generally accessible natural areas. The river's aesthetic includes areas of significant elevation change suitable for more adventurous paddling, as well as calmer dam environments ideal for casual canoeing or kayaking.
