a word of caution  - the roads leading to pedra bonita are not always safe, also due to the traffic in the area and the scarce lighting - we recommend going by car, not by foot, and accompanied by a professional guide.

in addition to the extra safety hiking guides can provide, professional guides are fluent in portuguese and would be indispensable in case of an emergency to communicate with medical crews. 

on this link we show pedra bonitaon a wikimapia - the link as we present it is best seen using google chrome, as it might not open at the right coordinates or zoom correctly with other browsers.
