The total trail length is 3,6 kilometres return (2.2 miles), and the elevation gain is 300 metres (985 feet), 1 hour approx. (one way). After that, we will hike back for around 1-hour trough the trail we came in to get back to the car. Then, we will stop respectively at Prainha Beach and/or Grumari Beach, where we will have around 45 min. to relax at each spot. If the weather forecast is unfavorable, we will offer an alternative itinerary after the hike. After that, we drive through Rio's coast until the drop-off point.
