Gávea Stone Ride
Between São Conrado and Barra da Tijuca neighborhoods, on Rio de Janeiro coast, at Tijuca Forest National Park, there is a legendary monolith with the face of a giant. Gávea Stone is a huge rock surrounded by lush vegetation, at Atlantic Forest. Over time, damage caused by nature gave the rock vertical face, the appearance of a human face.
Gávea Stone trail is the ideal ride for those who are looking for a real challenge. The stone awakens admiration for imposing and mystery. It is one of Tijuca Forest Nacional Park extreme points and one of the most spectacular viewpoints.
Near the summit, there is a small stretch of climbing called Carrasqueira, with approximately 30 meters. It has Brazilian graduation level I. Private Shuttle in Rio takes all the necessary climbing equipment to make an easier and safer access to the mountain.
