Highlights
We begin in the charming neighbourhood of Cosme Velho, walking up a cobblestone road toward the forest. Entering Tijuca Forest National Park at the historic Carioca River reservoir—built during imperial times when the river supplied most of Rio’s water—we reach the Carioca River Trail. Your adventure starts with a climb up a stone staircase, keeping an eye out for wildlife. With luck, we may spot monkeys, sloths, quatis, toucans, and a variety of birds. Along the way, we pause at a scenic lookout before arriving at the Emperor’s Bathtub—a pool once used by Dom Pedro II to cool off during forest visits. Next, we stop at the Paineiras Visitors Centre, a former hotel with information about the park. Here, you can enjoy coffee and snacks before continuing the final 1 km walk to the statue. At the top you’ll marvel at the iconic statue and breathtaking views of Rio. We then return to Cosme Velho on the Christ the Redeemer Train, ending the journey with unforgettable memories.

Ablauf
You'll notice that people from Rio call themselves Cariocas, and here you'll learn the reason why the river was so important to the early residents of Rio de Janeiro. After a 20 minute walk through the leafy neighbourhood of Cosme Velho, we enter into the Tijuca Forest National Park alongside this historic river.
After climbing up into the forest, crossing paths with the Carioca river along the way, we stop at a lookout with a view of the Guanabara Bay.
If you're feeling the heat on the trail, you can cool down in royal style. This giant bathtub was built for the enjoyment of Emperor Dom Pedro II and his family. It's fed by the river, and while it is partially in ruins, it's still possible to take a splash.
This old hotel has been converted into a modern visitor's centre, with information about the national park and the Christ the Redeemer Statue. Here you can get a coffee, use the bathroom and grab a bite to eat.
On the last 1km section of the trail we encounter the best views of the hike, before entering into the statue complex (your entrance fee is included in the price). You'll have time to see the panorama of the city at the feet of one of the modern wonders of the world.
We take the train home through the forest after visiting Christ the Redeemer. The modern electric Swiss-made trains are a far cry from the orginal steam train that first visited the mountain in 1884, and is Brazil's longest running tourist attraction. The train will leave you in the tranquil neighbourhood of Cosme Velho, where you can call an Uber or Taxi, or have a bite to eat or coffee before heading home.

About Rio de Janeiro
Rio de Janeiro schwingt sich zwischen Berge und Ozean: berühmte Strände, Granitgipfel, Sambarhythmen und ein weltbekannter Karneval.
Christus der Erlöser steht mit ausgebreiteten Armen auf dem Corcovado und blickt auf die Stadt hinab, und Seilbahnen fahren auf den Zuckerhut für Ausblicke über die Guanabara-Bucht. Darunter sind die Strände von Copacabana und Ipanema die Bühne des Alltags, mit Volleyball, Kiosken und der wellenförmig gemusterten Promenade, während Leblon und Arpoador den Streifen fortsetzen.
Top-ranked sights in Rio de Janeiro: Christ the Redeemer Statue (Cristo Redentor), Sugarloaf Mountain (Pao de Açúcar), Selarón Steps (Escadaria Selarón).
