The Serra dos Órgãos National Park is a conservation unit located in the Serra dos Órgãos massif, covering the municipalities of Guapimirim, Magé, Petrópolis and Teresópolis, with an area of 20,030 ha. It is open to permanent visitors. It is administered by the Chico Mendes Institute for Biodiversity Conservation (ICMBio). The mountaineering season is usually open from May to September, with adventurers from all over seeking direct contact with nature. The main route is the Petrópolis-Teresópolis Crossing, which takes three days and is considered the most beautiful hike in Brazil. The name of the park comes from the similarity of the mountain peaks with church organ pipes, hence the name Serra dos Órgãos. Follow me on Instagram: /gustavo.salum Namaste
