Activity Overview

At the designated time, we will convene close to Sugarloaf Mountain in Rio de Janeiro. Our adventure begins with a 90-minute trek along the Costão trail.

Our journey up Sugarloaf will commence on a rugged natural route, leading us to an exhilarating highlight: a 15-meter rope ascent on the rock wall. As we climb, you will be captivated by the stunning vistas of Guanabara Bay and the picturesque coastline of Niterói.

Before reaching the pinnacle, we will take a moment at the Pedra Filosofal viewpoint, where the striking landscape of Rio’s southern region unfolds before you. With keen observation, you may catch a glimpse of the Christ the Redeemer statue in the distance.

The return will be more straightforward! Depending on availability, we will either ride the complimentary cable car to Morro da Urca or descend through an alternative climbing path. Following that, we will take a brief 30-minute walk along a serene trail to reach the base of Sugarloaf Mountain.

After approximately 4 hours of exploration, our excursion up Sugarloaf Mountain will conclude at the original meeting point.
