Pedra Bonita is a popular hiking spot in Rio de Janeiro known for its stunning views of the city and surrounding mountains. The trail is relatively easy, making it a great option for both experienced hikers and beginners looking for a picturesque adventure.

At the top, visitors can take in panoramic views of the entire city below and even catch a glimpse of hang gliders soaring through the sky. It's definitely worth the trek for anyone wanting to experience the natural beauty of Rio from a different perspective.

This hike is very easy to follow and you don't need a guide.

PS: The hike is free but if you come with a car, the parking is paid. The spot tagged on the location is the start of the hike and the parking lot.
