Why Should You Go?

Pedra da Gávea is no doubt one of Rio’s most amazing hiking tours, just a short trip from the city. Go for a climb up this impressive monolith, the world’s largest coastal granite formation, to its majestic summit for incredible views in all directions.

Description:

Shrouded in mystery, the giant appears imposing and beautiful in the most admired adventure in the city. In the standard circuit hike, overcoming the steep path all the way up and the basic climbing section are the challenge to experience the rewards. But don’t worry, the climbing gear is included and no previous experience is needed. In the advanced circuit hike, the jungle is really dense until reaching the Garganta do Céu grotto, unique place that reveals one of the most stunning views. From there, we’ll overcome several steep obstacles to reach the summit of Pedra da Gavea, also going through a basic climbing section. Once at the top, we are rewarded with nature’s master piece.

This hiking tour takes place in sector C of Tijuca National Park, which means you’ll be hiking inside the Atlantic Rainforest in Rio and that there is a great chance of running into some of the local wildlife. Remember that the climate is very hot and humid, so dress accordingly and come prepared for some good exercise. The path is steep all the way up with several natural obstacles that we’ll have to overcome. On our way back, we use the climbing gear to accelerate and provide a pleasant descent. There’s nothing to fear though, the entire hike and climb are perfectly safe. If you have an adventurer’s soul, this is the tour you’ve been looking for! Ready to go?
