Itinerary
The Garganta do Céu trail starts at the same starting point as the traditional Pedra da Gávea trail. Although it is shorter, this trail is considered more difficult because it is steeper and requires good orientation in the Atlantic Forest. The forest is dense until you reach the Garganta do Céu cave, from where you will have one of the most beautiful views of the city of Rio de Janeiro. This cave is located on the south face of Pedra da Gávea, where the rock forms a beautiful natural frame and a viewpoint from which you can see a unique angle of Dois Irmãos hill and São Conrado beach. After a break for photos, we will return by the same path to the starting point where we met at the beginning of the trail. This hiking tour takes place within sector C of the Tijuca National Park, which means that you are within the Atlantic Forest of Rio de Janeiro and have a great chance of seeing wild animals during the hike. Be part of the select group of who have already visited Garganta do Céu.

About Rio de Janeiro
Rio de Janeiro sweeps between mountains and ocean, a city of famous beaches, granite peaks, samba rhythms and a carnival known around the world.
Christ the Redeemer stands with open arms atop Corcovado, looking down on the city, and cable cars climb Sugarloaf Mountain for views across Guanabara Bay. Below, the beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema are the stage for daily life, with volleyball, kiosks and the wave-patterned promenade, while Leblon and Arpoador extend the strip.
Top-ranked sights in Rio de Janeiro: Christ the Redeemer Statue (Cristo Redentor), Sugarloaf Mountain (Pao de Açúcar), Selarón Steps (Escadaria Selarón).
