the mirante do leblon is only a short walk away past the end of the beach opposite from ipanema beach, and it offers a beautiful view of both beaches and the rock of arpoador. two kiosks at the mirante do leblon transform the spot into the perfect place to spend a nice afternoon gazing at the views. there is a basic free-gym at the end of the beach, and a work-out area with some infrastructure.

the bicycle path that runs along leblon beach continues through ipanema beach and all the way along copacabana and leme's beach, making it a stunning 8 km path with gorgeous views and ideal for jogging as well as bicycling.
