Description

Get to the top of Rio de Janeiro’s most iconic landmark: Sugarloaf Mountain. Follow us for a family-friendly hiking and climbing experience in this stunning Brazilian city.

Our adventure begins at Praia Vermelha (Red Beach). Then, we’ll follow the Claudio Coutinho path to the top of the Sugarloaf Mountain (Pão de Açúcar). In some parts of the hike, especially the last ones, we will need to do some easy climbing. But don’t worry! This is an easy hike and kids are more than welcome. Once we reach the top, we’ll enjoy the breathtaking views of Zona Sul, Niterói city and other famous landmarks in Rio. We can then take the cable car down to Morro da Urca and hike the rest of the way down.

Riding the cable car is a fantastic experience that we recommend to all tourists in Rio. You’ll be able to view the Rio beaches, downtown Rio, Corcovado, Guanabara Bay, and others.

So, what are you waiting for? If you’re travelling to Rio with friends or family or if you live close by, this is the perfect activity to add to your routine or trip. Send your request! We are waiting for you.

I was looking for a local guide for a hike I was planning and came across Explore-Share. They seemed to have good reviews and so decided to give them a try. The experience was very positive and completely happy with their service. I will be using them again for next trip.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
