During this journey, we will first visit the summit of Guara
During this journey, we will first visit the summit of Guaratiba Hill and the renowned hanging anvil-shaped stone (Pedra do Telégrafo), where we can take some photos that will freak out your friends and family (we promise, it's totally safe). It takes around 40 to 60 minutes on a moderate trail to reach this viewpoint (350 meters / 1150 feet high), which provides us with a sight of the mountainous coastline of the city and the vast surrounding ocean. The total trail length is 3,6 kilometers roundtrip (2.2 miles), and the elevation gain is 300 meters (985 feet), 1 hour approx. (one way). After that, we will hike back for around 1-hour trough the trail we came in to get back to the car. Then, we will stop respectively at Prainha Beach and/or Grumari Beach, where we will have around 45 min. to relax at each spot. If the weather forecast is unfavorable, we will offer an alternative itinerary after the hike. After that, we drive through Rio's coast until the drop-off point.
