Sugar loaf hike is an exciting way to reach the summit and enjoy the views while combining hiking and rock climbing!

Sugar Loaf Natural Monument, one of Rio’s most famous icons, consists of two hills. The higher one is the Sugar Loaf (396m / 1030ft), and the lower is Urca Hill (220m / 722ft). The Costão Trail, which takes us to the top of Sugar Loaf, requires a quick climb (15m / 49ft), considered easy by the experienced and indicated for beginners. All safety equipment are included!
