What to expect

Lots of fun to the top of the well-climbed 396 meters of this Brazilian postcard. It's about 2 hours climbing amid rock crystals, monkeys, and adrenaline. Once back to civilization at the Club that awaits us on top of the hill, the view is 360 degrees, and all angles are impressive landscapes. We took the cable car down to Morro da Urca, where there are even more restaurant and drink options. Half an hour later we are back at Praia Vermelha. We climb/climb mountains daily: 2 brothers Christ Gávea Sugar Loaf
