Garganta do Céu and Waterfall hike in Pedra da Gávea

The Throat of Heaven is an almost secret spot in Tijuca National Park. From the top, you'll see Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf Mountain, the beaches of the South Zone, Pedra da Gávea, and much more, all in a single view that few tourists have the chance to witness. A swim in a waterfall After the climb, the reward: a relaxing swim in the Sorimã Waterfall, a natural, cool, and little-explored refuge, perfect for renewing your energy. A trail off the tourist track No crowds. This is an alternative route, guided by a local resident who shares stories, curiosities, and guarantees a safe and authentic experience. A true connection with nature You will be immersed in the Atlantic Forest, listening to birds, breathing fresh air, and experiencing the greenest and wildest side of Rio de Janeiro. Perfect settings for unforgettable photos Both the viewpoint and the waterfall are ideal places to capture unique moments, with breathtaking landscapes.
