Reach the peak of Sugarloaf Mountain
Overview:
The famous Pão de Açúcar – or Sugarloaf Mountain – is a must do when visiting Rio de Janeiro. Given its name due to its resemblance of a refined sugar loaf, this city icon boasts some of the best views in the whole of Rio. Journey to the top in a glass cable car, where your first stop will be on the head of Urca Hill, 215 metres above sea level, where you can enjoy views of the bay and surrounding islands. Here you will take a second cable car to the peak of Sugarloaf, 395 meters above sea level and boasting 360-degree views of the entire city, Copacabana beach and Christ the Redeemer.
Winged Boots Wisdom:
Depending on what time of day you visit, the sun can get very hot and the lines for the cable cars can have you waiting in the heat at times. Pack some water, sunscreen and a hat to keep protected.
