Pedra Bonita

Pedra Bonita (in English, Beautiful Rock) is a deforested mountain with an altitude of 696 meters, covered, in the past by Atlantic forest. From its top you can get a beautiful and closer view of Pedra da Gávea, another seaside monolith. The view you get from the top of Pedra Bonita is incredible, one of the best visuals of the city.
Rio de Janeiro is known worldwide as a perfect place for hang gliding. Starting from Pedra Bonita bound to Pepino Beach you can take a hang glider flight and enjoy the beauties of Rio de Janeiro from another perspective.
