Trilha Cartão Postal

Route

Considered the most beautiful trail at the PARNASO headquarters in Teresópolis, the Trilha Cartão Postal has a beautiful view of the Serra dos Órgãos mountain range. Access to this trail is also via the Estrada da Barragem, just past the Casa do Montanhista; if you are driving, you can leave your car at the old inn a little past the entrance of the Cartão Postal. It is rated moderate, with several steep uphill sections with steps. At the lookout there is a sign showing the names of the main mountains of the range, such as Escalavrado, Dedo de Deus, Santo Antônio, among others. Before the lookout, there is a fork that will take you to another trail, the 360, a trail that connects the Cartão Postal and the Mozart Catão. 2-hour duration (round trip)
