Agulhinha da Gávea

4.5

Description

This trail is your opportunity to share the lush view that paragliding practitioners have of São Conrado beach and the southern zone of Rio de Janeiro. Its path is the same that leads to the ramp from where paragliders and hang gliders take off, coloring the sky of the neighborhood. With a short duration, the trail is easy, and a small "scramble" is the most difficult part of the path. This trail is frequently used by climbers who ascend the mountain via the rock to the summit and descend via the trail. The location has about 10 climbing routes. The mountain is also known as Pedra Aguda, named for its pointed shape. Agulhinha da Gávea is situated in the area of the Tijuca National Park near the sea, and its viewpoint offers views of the beach and the forest. From there, you can see Pedra da Gávea, Pedra Bonita, Morro Dois Irmãos, and the beaches of São Conrado, Leblon, and Ipanema.

Fiz a trilha em dia de semana e recomendo, dá para parar o carro no estacionamento e a trilha fica bem mais vazia!
