Trekking to the top of the Sugar Loaf is one of the most wanted.

most famous post-card image in a non-conventional way, adding
in a dose of adventure to the trip. Placed in one of the main
climbing centers in the World, the 395 meters high rock has more
than 100 options of access to its top, with every level of difficulty.
It's most frequented access to the top is the "Costão",
a trail that can be taken by beginners. On the way up, you will

Bay. The trip takes about 2 hours and includes a short and very
easy climbing section, where security equipment and procedures
will be used by our experienced guides to ensure total safety
