PEDRA DA GAVEA

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : Pedra de Gavea is an impressive and intimidating mountain in Rio de Janeiro that offers stunning views of the Brazilian city. From the rocks atop the mountain, one is treated to stunning views of downtown Rio, Copacabana Bay, and the surrounding countryside. It's one of the most iconic sights from this massive South American country. Those views are enhanced even more with a drone, as we see here from the footage of drone pilot Martin Sanchez.

On my trip to Rio de Janeiro Brazil.There are a lot of wonderful places to explore in Brazil but this one specific spot was always on my mind. I asked the locals if it was possible to reach the top. They said yes but it is very hard. I decided to accept the mission and take the challenge. After many intense levels of hiking and climbing and almost falling off the mountain, yes literally! I finally made it to the top. This was the moment all the weight lifted off my shoulders and all my energy re-charged. There was only one thing left to do. Drone baby, Drone!

Special thank you to Marcos! And our climbing team for successfully getting up and down the mountain safely! Trihlas do Rio de Janeiro!

Elevation 844meters (2,769ft)
