Hiking Pedra Bonita

Pedra Bonita is one of Rio de Janeiro's most popular hikes - and for good reason. The views afforded by this granite monolith are some of the best in the city, and since Pedra Bonita is also home to the city's paraglider/hang glider launch ramp, the summit can be accessed relatively easily

Hiking Corcovado To Cristo Redentor (Giant Stone Jesus)

LOOK! Up there on the cliff! It's a bird, it's a plane, no, it's Superman! Well, actually it's not Superman, it's Giant Stone Jesus - sorry to disappoint you. Although now that I am thinking about the two of them, Giant Stone Jesus vs. Superman in a battle to the death would certainly be
