Embark on a journey to Tijuca National Park, one of the world’s biggest urban forests. Connect with a tour guide at your hotel’s lobby before setting out to explore the Tijuca Forest. This lush green area is the habitat of many small creatures like squirrels, monkeys, porcupines, foxes and armadillos, alongside a myriad of butterflies, birds, and reptiles. Bear in mind these are wild animals, so maintain a safe distance and do not feed them. Delight in the beauty of the tropical rainforest and discover its diverse ecosystem. Along the way, take in the striking views from the Vista Chinesa vantage point, Taunay waterfall and the Mayrink Chapel.
