Very adventurous and exciting trip to the lagoa. We did a short 15-25 minute hike to start things off to have a wonderful view of: Pão de açúcar and Dois Irmãos. Afterwards, we went on a bike ride around the lagoa; Diogo is a very recommended tour guide, funny ,always spreads lots of good energy, which makes practicing Portuguese very enjoyable.

Lagoa was our spot for a hike and a hike ride, first at Parque da Catacumba and then around the marvelous lagoon located there. This is one of the best combinations that you can do when visiting Rio. The hike takes 20 minutes and the view is very breathtaking and the bike ride is around 30 minutes. Besides the views of Christ the redeemer and Morro Dois Irmãos, you can also enjoy a beautiful sunset by the shore. Come to RioLIVE! for this hike and bike ride!
