Overview

The Throat of Heaven is an almost secret spot in Tijuca National Park. From the top, you'll see Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf Mountain, the beaches of the South Zone, Pedra da Gávea, and much more, all in a single view that few tourists have the chance to witness.

A swim in a waterfall
After the climb, the reward: a relaxing swim in the Sorimã Waterfall, a natural, cool, and little-explored refuge, perfect for renewing your energy.

A trail off the tourist track
No crowds. This is an alternative route, guided by a local resident who shares stories, curiosities, and guarantees a safe and authentic experience.

A true connection with nature
You will be immersed in the Atlantic Forest, listening to birds, breathing fresh air, and experiencing the greenest and wildest side of Rio de Janeiro.

Perfect settings for unforgettable photos
Both the viewpoint and the waterfall are ideal places to capture unique moments, with breathtaking landscapes.

Activity itinerary

Discover one of Rio de Janeiro's most secret and stunning trails, with breathtaking views and a refreshing dip in a wild waterfall! On this challenging, moderately/difficult, approximately 2-hour uphill hike, and little-known trail, we'll explore one of the hidden gems of Tijuca National Park. From the top of Garganta do Céu (Throat of Heaven), you'll have a surreal view of Rio, with Christ the Redeemer, Pedra da Gávea, and the beaches of the South Zone at your feet. And to top it all off, a dip in the refreshing Sorimã Waterfall, a well-kept secret of the forest!
