During the journey, your guide will provide technical guidance and accompany all the progression, adapting the pace to the group's characteristics.

Along the climb, enjoy privileged views of Guanabara Bay, the Atlantic Ocean, Morro da Urca, and Corcovado. No prior climbing experience is necessary, but it is important to have good physical fitness and be comfortable with heights and exposure.
