HIKING THE BELL STONE IN TERESÓPOLIS - PNSO

Pedra do Sino, within the Serra dos Órgãos Natonal Park, is the highest mountain in the park. Its summit reaches an altitude of 2.275m. The route is about 15 Km long and goes from the park's entrance in Teresópolis to the summit of the mountain. It is the most popular trail around the park, going by beautiful stretches of forest, waterfalls, high altitude fields and beautiful landscapes. The track is always ascending and much of it is in a zig-zag. Arriving at old shelter 3 there's a wonderful observatory, where it is highly recommended to make a short break to rest and enjoy the view of the city of Teresopolis and the three peaks of Salinas. Near the summit, there's shelter 4, where you can stay. Another good option is to camp in the area near the shelter. Watching the sunset at Pedra do Sino or sunrise at Pedra da Baleia is indispensable for hikers. The clouds can be seen below us and, when the day is clear, it is possible to see Guanabara Bay and most of Rio de Janeiro.
