paragliders land on the corner of săo conrado beach called pepino beach, where they are able to relax at one of the many kiosks while discussing their unique experience.
visitors with more time to devote to these sports, can also head across the bay to parque da cidade in niterói, where paragliding is king and truly gives some incredible views.
equally rewarding and extremely exhilarating, rappeling is beginning to become more accessible to visitors. it involves being attached to a zipline and jumping down a mountain backwards - it is great for those who love nature, as it takes place among the mountains of rio de janeiro's dense rainforest.
