What's included in Pedra da Gávea the Most Challenging Hike of Rio de Janeiro
(Subject to Option Inclusions)During this activity we are gonna hike about 5km uphill to reach the Top of Pedra da Gavea, about 980 meter high. The time require for this adventure is around six to eight hours, so no forget to bring with you 2ltrs of water per person. Around 70% of the hike we would found the biggest challenge of Pedra da Gavea: "carrasqueira", wich is a climbing section of 30 meters where we are gonna use all the security equipment to make the climb safe and easy. Most of the hike in gonna be on the shade of the trees, but at the top we have no protection, so is good to have sunscreen and something to protect your heads. For this activity you need to be on shape and prepare for the adventure!
