This unique geological formation in Tijuca National Park, provides one of Rio’s best viewpoints, with 360-degree views of the city, Pedra da Gávea, and the ocean. The hike takes about 30–40 minutes and is relatively easy, making it accessible to most visitors. You’re able to take an Uber or taxi to the top if you don’t want to hike much. It’s also the take-off point for hang gliding and paragliding if you’re in the mood for adventure. Booking flights in advance is smart, and early morning hikes offer cooler temperatures and fewer people.
