Monumento Natural dos Morros do Pão de Açúcar e da Urca

What an amazing place to spend a day or afternoon. One of my favourite places in Rio. Beautiful views.

You cannot miss out on this when you visit Rio. The views affording from the top of Sugarloaf are breathtaking. There are beautiful pathways to explore at the top, as well as a museum and a few cafes/restaurants. I could happily spend the whole day taking in the scenery. Do yourself a favour and get the priority pass which allows you to jump the lines, as it can get really busy.

A truly unique experience. The lash forest and wildlife is amazing. The only problem I encountered was that the toilets where far away and not the cleanest. As this is a popular tourist destination, toilets should be clearly visible and cleaner.

Sugar Loaf in Rio de Janeiro. Beautiful view from the top. It's cost about $30US to enter. You ride 2 sets of cable cars to the top and down. Nice shops and light refreshments to enjoy the view. Very easy to get there in an Uber.

One of the top two touristy things to do in Rio De Janeiro (the other is Christ the Reedemer). Great views from the top of the mountain of entire Rio and of the Christ statue from a distance. The cable car ride up is effortless and the actual journey is 5 minutes long (not accounting for lines). They have a small market on the middle mountain on the way back where you can buy food to eat (not sure if weekend only though). The place is very well equipped with clean restrooms and has other restaurants to grab a snack if you wish. You can take a short cab ride to the cable car station.
