Pão de Açúcar do Mamanguá
A granite peak beside the fjord; from the top you can see the whole Mamanguá inlet, making it Paraty's best hike for views.
A granite peak at the entrance to the Mamanguá Inlet, about 450 m high. From the foot of the mountain, take a boat ashore, then climb a rainforest trail for about 1 to 1.5 hours to the summit. Some sections are steep and require using both hands and feet. From the top, the whole inlet, the bay's islands and the distant Serra da Bocaina come into view, making it Paraty's most classic viewpoint. A combined boat-and-hike tour is recommended. Bring plenty of water and avoid going after rain, when the path is slippery.
