Trilha da Ilha do Pontal

Route

The Trilha da Ilha do Pontal starts at a bridge that connects the end of Rua Doutor Mário Souto to Ilha do Pontal, where hikers should continue to the marsh formed by cattail stands. The route continues for about 100 meters through this area of shrubby vegetation until reaching the Mirante I. Next, continue along the rock outcrop, where there are several cacti, to the entrance on the left into the forest. From this point, walk to the Bosque Vermelho, formed by trees of the family Myrtaceae, and then through a clearing located on a rock outcrop, where a descent to the left begins toward the Mirante II, the end point of the trail.
