My Rio hiking shortlist stretches from mellow Pedra Bonita to the rope-assisted scramble up Pedra da Gávea. Trails here start in city neighborhoods and end on bare granite with the beaches straight below. Match the route to your legs, not your ego; check each listing for ropes and dawn starts before you commit.
Step into the mesmerizing world of Tijuca National Park, where hidden caves, cascading waterfalls, and secret spots await on this unforgettable half-day hiking tour in Rio de Janeiro.
