Description 

there is a bit of everything in Urca, 5.3 to 5.13+ and lot's of bouldering. Climb sugarloaf, have a beer on top and take the tram down.


Getting There 

Very easy to find from Copacabana and Rio.Most routes have very short trail approaches

There is a Cable Car that arrives at the summit of the Pão de Açúcar and climbers may descend to the mid station using this cable car free of charge!! After 7pm the ride to the bottom is free as well.
