The Dois Irmãos Trail climbs very steeply from Vidigal to Morro dos Irmãos, crossing stretches of dense Atlantic Forest vegetation and bromeliads. The panoramic views reward the effort, revealing the sea, the beaches of Leblon and Ipanema, and the Rio de Janeiro skyline in 360 degrees.

One of the most impressive waterfalls in the Chapada Diamantina, where the water plunges from a great height and seems to dissolve into thin air before hitting the ground. The hike to the viewpoint crosses open plateaus and wild landscapes.

From here, there are magnificent views over the valley and the lush vegetation of the hills. Take a moment to appreciate the surroundings.

The T11 trail on Ilha Grande connects areas of dense forest with coastal sections, offering a varied and very peaceful walk. It's a short, well-marked route, ideal for those who want to explore less-traveled corners of the island. It's advisable to wear shoes with good traction, as some sections can be wet and slippery.

The T10 trail on Ilha Grande covers a 5-kilometer stretch of Atlantic Forest with shaded sections and some moderate inclines, ideal for those seeking a peaceful walk away from the more crowded areas. Along the way, you'll enjoy partial views of the coastline and lush greenery. Comfortable shoes and water are recommended.

Cachoeira da Feiticeira is one of Ilha Grande's natural gems, with a 12-meter waterfall surrounded by rainforest and a pool perfect for swimming. It's reached via a well-marked trail from Abraão, with moderate inclines and shade for much of the way, making it accessible for intermediate hikers. It's an ideal spot to cool off and enjoy the surroundings; comfortable shoes and water are recommended, and if you'd like to extend your outing, you can combine the visit with a trip to the nearby Praia da Feiticeira.

From this vantage point, you can see the sea and several islands covered in vegetation. From above, you can make out the outline of the bay, the coastal mountains, and the waters that change color with the light. It's a truly unique place.

Morro da Bandeira is a summit covered in Atlantic Forest within Tijuca National Park, and from this point on the trail you get a close-up view of its craggy peak. It's a good place to pause and get your bearings before continuing along the steeper sections.
