and are reaching straight to the top. This mountain has a height of about 196 meters and round at the top. It is among the oldest climbing peaks in the world.
The Sugarloaf Mountain is also named as the Pao de Auucar and exists from the last 600 million years. It is a true nature’s beauty that is seen in Brazil. It was named by the Portuguese which meant “bread of sugar”. Later on it was called as the Sugarloaf Mountain. They have derived this name from the fact that initially sugar was exported and packed in to bread like structure therefore it has its name from it.
But nowadays it is one of the most recognized tourist attractions. To reach to the top most point you need a cable car that would take you there. This service began in the year 1912 and since then this business is flourishing well. There are two stages to reach the highest point. The first stoppage point is the Corcovado Mountain where you can enjoy the scenic beauty of the nature and the majestic beauty. Then again you need to hire a cable car and then reach to Sugarloaf Mountain. It is a spectacular view to watch the entire city covered with white snowy fog.
Rock climbing is the major activity that is done by the visitors. So if you are already an expert then can go for it or else you can take the guide along with you. For rock climbing you have to but a ticket only then you can start climbing. The panoramic views of the Rio de Janeiro are awesome and also eye catching. You can enjoy this trip during the afternoons and spend the morning in exploring the city itself. It will take only half day to complete the journey.
The special backdrops of the Sugarloaf Mountain make Brazil as the liveliest city. As the sunsets in the evening its view is just unbelievable and unmatchable because you cannot express the beauty in words. Therefore it can be said that it is an adventurous trip with magnificent natural beauty that nature has bestowed.
So according to me visiting Sugarloaf Mountain is definitely an experience that is priceless and beyond comparison. You can capture all your adventurous moments and make it your trip an everlasting one.
