Where to go Hiking and Camping in Brazil

Brazil is known for many things. You’ve most likely, for example, heard about the country’s excellent soccer teams. That being said, you may not know that Brazil is one of South America’s best destinations for hiking and camping. Below, you can find some of the best hiking trails in Brazil.

Morro da Urca

Morro da Urca is a mountain found in Rio de Janeiro. It runs through the jungle and takes about an hour and a half to complete because it’s only a kilometer and a half long. You can also hike it all year; so, all you’re missing is your hiking boots.

It should be noted that this is considered to be a relatively easy trail; so, it is suited better for beginners unless you’re planning to go for the view and the experience.

With four out of five stars on TripAdvisor, you can’t go wrong with Pedra Redonda. The trail is suited for anybody whether you are a beginner to the more advanced. Be sure to bring your camera because the view from the end of the trail is absolutely to-die-for.

Although it is relatively easy, reviews suggest that kids should be taken along. If you’re planning to go on a vacation with your family, then you might want to leave this one out if your kids are with you. Keep in mind this is a tropical area and it rains frequently, be sure to bring a rain jacket.
