🌳 Tijuca Forest Tour – The Green Heart of Rio
About the Activity
Discover the natural beauty and tranquility of Tijuca Forest, a true green paradise located in the heart of Rio de Janeiro.
Part of the Tijuca National Park, this is one of the largest urban forests in the world, offering direct contact with nature and breathtaking views.
During the tour, visitors will explore the forest’s main highlights, with stops at waterfalls, viewpoints, and historical landmarks.
From various points, it’s possible to admire panoramic views of Ipanema, Copacabana, Guanabara Bay, and Niterói, forming one of Rio’s most stunning landscapes.
The forest shelters a rich variety of native fauna and flora from the Atlantic Rainforest.
Its history dates back to the Imperial era, when Emperor Dom Pedro II ordered the reforestation of the region, after centuries of deforestation for sugarcane and coffee plantations.
More than 100,000 native trees were planted over 13 years, making it the largest urban reforestation project ever accomplished by humankind.
With over 3,900 hectares, Tijuca Forest is home to iconic mountains such as Pico da Tijuca and Bico do Papagaio, offering scenic trails and natural attractions.
It’s the perfect experience for those seeking nature, history, and peace — all within the city limits.
