When talking about tourism in the city of Rio de Janeiro and its beauties, people use to relate these attributes based on the beaches, Corcovado or Sugarloaf Mountain, all located in the south of this incredible city, but Rio de Janeiro would not be known as the Wonderful City, if other regions of the city didn’t have their own beauties as well.

Xperiencer, in order to provide the best that Rio has to offer, will take you to Pedra do Osso (Bone Stone), a rock formation located in Pedra Branca Park, the largest urban park in the world, in the neighborhood of Realengo and of the Transcarioca Trail.

Among the main features that most attract people’s interest in visiting Pedra do Osso, we can highlight that this rock, according to the geologist and Professor José Carlos Sicoli Seoane (Federal University of Rio de Janeiro), was formed more than 500 million years ago, it is twenty meters high, and being in an upright position, it presents, surprisingly, a perfect balance, defying gravity and motivating adventurers to climb up to its top.

From the top of this rock, you can admire a magnificent landscape in which the mountainous region of Rio de Janeiro, Barra da Tijuca, Pedra Bonita and even Pedra da Gávea stand out. This place is perfect for a photoshoot.

The trail to Pedra do Osso has a moderate degree of difficulty, and can be covered in two hours of walking, at a normal pace. The ascent to the top is carried out with the support of our rappel and climbing specialist, to provide all the support and safety possible, to turn this moment into an extraordinary personal achievement to our customers.
