Day 1

place Sacopã Viewpoint & The Catacumba Sculptures Park

In the core of the city there is a huge lake called Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon. With 2.4 million square meters (0.93 square miles) of surface area, aquatic sports such as rowing or simply biking happen around its water. The area offers diverse leisure equipments and food kiosks. Around the lake local families gather for picnicking or practicing sports. We invite you to come with us on a 30-min hike up to the Sacopã Viewpoint at the Catacumba Sculptures Park. This is an experience for art and nature lovers, family groups, or people who want to enjoy a short walk around nature with a rewarding view of the lake at the end. This experience can include a stop at a restaurant around the lake and a swan boat ride.
