Come with us on this unforgettable 7/8 hours hiking. This includes the walk to access the main viewpoints of Pedra da Gávea, free time to take photos and enjoy the beautiful landscapes from the summit and descent to the entrance of Tijuca National Park. After encountering the guide at the meeting point, we move towards the Tijuca Park’s entrance, not far away, in order to start our adventure. As this is a private tour, the guide will be exclusive to your group. It isn’t necessary rock-climbing skills, but great fitness is important to accomplish the activity. Despite being a very steep trail, with some climbing sections, it is possible to carry out the entire route safely. Our guides are expert mountaineers and have led this activity several times. So just follow the guidelines that will be given before and during the trail and enjoy the beautiful landscapes. All the necessary climbing and rappel gears will be taken by our crew Besides the exceptional views you can have throughout Pedra da Gávea’s bushes, you will be told curiosities about its exuberant biodiversity during a welcoming and safe experience.
We hiked up the Pedra da Gávea with Lucas, and he was an amazing tour guide. He was very knowledgeable, kind and full of energy! We had such a great experience in his company and got to learn a lot about the history of Rio and the surrounding nature. I would very highly recommend the tour!
A great hike with very rewarding views at the top. Lucas was a great guide and made the hike all the more enjoyable
Obrigado Lucas! We had an amazing experience on this hike with you. So knowledgeable about culture and the environment! Your motivation helped us reach the top! So grateful to have been able to do this hike and you made the experience the highlight of our trip! Incredible views! Katie and Leigh
Lucas is an incredible guide! We had so much fun with him and since the beginning he made us feel so comfortable and adjusted to our pace. We had great communication with him and a lot of nice conversations. He knows exactly what he’s doing and it honestly felt like being with a friend. The hike was spectacular and well worth it with a guide! We highly recommend Lucas!
The view from Pedro da Tijuca is spectacular. It is nice to see the more northern parts of Rio and Pedra da Gavea from a different angle then you can do from the city. The stairs up is not as scary as it might looks on the pictures. Thomas Arias, our guide, was really skilled and told about the history of the park, the fauna, animals and hidden gems in the park. Totally worth it
I recommend doing the trail with the guide Walter: (21) 96906-6914. We made the trail to the heavenly chair, over the emperor's head, and we used Walter's equipment to climb the carnage.
The view from the gavea stone is spectacular, Rio de Janeiro is beautiful, the whole trail is beautiful, the view, the forest. The guide was very attentive, organized
We made the Gávea trail a very beautiful place full of adventures and beautiful landscapes, the trail has its challenges but compensates for the visual The climb in the carrasqueira was an exciting challenge but with a lot of safety and joy.
Sensational. Professionals of very high level. Safe and incredible experience. I highly recommend. The trail is difficult, but the view pays off every effort. Special thanks to the guides and responsible for the event.
An incredible experience. Experienced and well-prepared guides,which enable a quiet trail even for the most inexperienced people.
Guide Counselor by a friend, we were not disappointed. Lucas is really very friendly, professional, attentive. We had a great day, climbed Pedra da Gávea. It was fantastic. The hike is accessible, you should not be afraid to grill and rappel for the loop, and it is definitely worth it!!! Seen extraordinary.
I made the stone trail of Gávea with my daughter on 16/04/22 and it was show. Lucas (guide) was fantastic. Punctual, committed to safety, friendly, has knowledge and experience in climbing, rapel. I recommend too much and will do other trails . As for the landscape, there is no comment.
We made a pretty cool roll in the back of the Sugar Bread, with some climbing stretches with rope. Lucas and Edu gave a very nice support during the journey and in the stretches with rope. Everyone had a fucking fun, and quite safely.
Incredible trail. I loved the climbing tracks. The climate was not the best, so we took closed view. But it must be amazing on a sunny day!Sensational the work of Edu and Lucas who guided us safely! I'll be back!
The best part of the Pedra da Gávea track was to climb from Rapel in Carrasqueira, total adrenaline. The view from above is surreal!
Amazing this experience! We found it very dangerous, so the importance of a guide with experience in climbing/rapel! Our was great! Rafael @calango.ninja
I had a unique experience in my life. I lived in Brazil for 7 years and one of my wishes was to climb the sugar bread climbing Lucas instructed me to make this dream a reality... Thank you Lucas that day was very good, I keep it in my heart as a beautiful memory. I hope to return soon to Rio and continue to know places :) I recommend to everyone, Lucas was very respectful and kind 🙏
An unforgettable hike, leaving breathtaking images and stars in your head for a long time, with exceptional guides, great patience, exemplary professionalism and flexibility! Some parts of the hike, especially the "garganta do céu" side require some physical preparation (and mentally, I would highly recommend having at least a good rope!) and when some of us were already thinking about turning back or panicking along the way, Edu and Lucas were there 100%, of incredible kindness and calm. As our walking pace was slower than expected, we ended up doing part of the night hike, sometimes climbing several more difficult parts in the dark, but again, our guides were able to adapt to the situation quietly and the end of the adventure was rewarded with fireflies and a swim in the night waterfall, in the middle of the forest and the music of its inhabitants at night. One of the most beautiful walks in the Brazilian Atlantic forest carioca, with 360-degree views to better understand the geography of Rio, to see the largest favela in Latin America as well as the multiple lagoons, lakes, hills, mountains and beaches of the city from very high .. not to be missed!
