Tijuca National Park Cave Trail Hike
Activity Details
We'll pick you up from your hotel in Rio de Janeiro at the indicated time and drive to Tijuca National Park. Before arriving, we'll stop at the Vista Chinesa viewpoint, from here where you'll have a breathtaking view of the city of Rio de Janeiro.
As soon as we arrive at the entrance of the park, we'll start the hiking route that will take us along the Cave Trail, one of the most special trails in the area. We'll walk along the trail, which is of low difficulty, and reach the Tunay waterfall, the first stop on the walking route.
We'll marvel at this natural wonder and then head to the Tijuca National Park Visitor Centre, the perfect place to learn all about the history and wildlife of the region.
Next, we'll walk for 20 minutes to one of the most incredible points of the trail: the Almas waterfall, where you can swim in its waters! After this relaxing experience, we'll go back to the Cave Trail and visit four amazing caves, such as the Bat Cave.
Finally, we'll walk the last part of the trail to reach the Baroness waterfall, where you can take enjoy another dip. We'll walk back to meet the minibus that will take us back to Rio de Janeiro. We'll finish the tour after 5 hours of excursion.
