Tijuca Peak Hiking Tour in Rio de Janeiro

Begin your hiking excursion with a morning pickup at your Rio hotel. Climb into a comfortable tour vehicle, and travel to Tijuca National Park. Drive through the forest to your first stop, the Taunay Waterfall, one of the highest in this urban forest. Stop at the Visitor's Center, and then lace up your shoes and begin your hike. Listen to your guide's commentary on the endemic flora and fauna as you walk, stopping at the Chinese Viewpoint and the Emperor's Table. End up at Monkey's Waterfall on the summit of Tijuca Peak, and get panoramic views of Rio and beyond.  Return to your vehicle for the journey back to your accommodations in central Rio.

Escape the crowds and see a side of Rio de Janeiro that most first-time visitors miss on a hiking tour of Tijuca National Park. Exploring with a guide ensures that you don’t get lost and increases your chances of identifying native flora and fauna. Plus, hassle-free hotel pickup and drop-off save you having to find a meeting point.
