Highlights

#Itsaboutthejourney - Our hike is in the midst of the beauty and biodiversity of the Atlantic Forest, the route is part of an unpaved road, part of trails that require resistance and physical preparation. With many attractions along the way, such as the viewpoint of Curva da Morte ☠, Poço dos Soldados, stone pavement (made by enslaved people and widely used in the 19th century), Caxadaço beach, a small paradisiacal beach with crystal clear water very inviting to the practice of snorkeling that is hidden behind a huge wall of rocks that makes it invisible to those who sail even close to the coast, for this reason it was often used by pirates and slave ships for the trafficking of enslaved people. To complete this spectacular walk, we arrived at Lopes Mendes a wild beach that is considered one of the most beautiful beaches in the world where we will have free time to enjoy this earthly paradise.

About Ilha Grande

Ilha Grande is a mountainous, car-free island off Rio de Janeiro state's Costa Verde, covered in Atlantic forest and ringed with beaches.

Ilha Grande rises from the sea near Angra dos Reis, its steep slopes still covered in Atlantic rainforest. There are no cars on the island: people walk, take boats and follow trails between villages. Vila do Abraão, the main settlement, has a pier, a whitewashed church and rows of guesthouses. A penal colony once stood on the far side, and the forest has reclaimed its ruins since the prison was demolished in the 1990s.

Top-ranked sights in Ilha Grande: Blue Lagoon (Lagoa Azul), Lopes Mendes Beach (Praia Lopes Mendes).
