Tijuca Forest Family Picnic
Tijuca National Park, the world’s largest urban rainforest, is an ideal setting for a family picnic. Spread across the hills surrounding Rio de Janeiro, the park provides a peaceful contrast to the busy streets below. With its tall trees, shaded paths, and fresh air, the forest is a welcome break from the city. The tour includes a picnic in a quiet clearing within the forest, where you can enjoy your meal surrounded by nature. Before and after lunch, there’s time to take short walks along easy trails. These paths pass by waterfalls, tropical fruit trees, and small orchid gardens. The area is well protected, allowing local plants and wildlife to thrive. You may hear the calls of birds or spot butterflies and small animals along the way. Children will enjoy looking for Brazilian fruits, some of which they might have tried earlier at breakfast. The setting encourages curiosity and calm, making it a relaxing experience for all ages. Whether you prefer walking or simply sitting and taking in the surroundings, this day in Tijuca is a chance to slow down and enjoy nature together without leaving the city far behind.
