Panoramic view of the sunset from Pedra Bonita in Rio de Janeiro, with the sea, the city, and mountains in the background, all bathed in golden light.

Breathtaking view

The hike to Pedra Bonita is short and easy, but the view at the top feels endless. Walking through the forest and hearing its sounds was already special. Reaching the summit and seeing Rio de Janeiro stretched between the sea and mountains is a memory I’ll keep forever. The guide made everything lighter and more fun.
