This itinerary includes the 2 main mountains of the national park: Agulhas Negras and Shelves, both with points that require the use of rope and safety equipment.
DAY 0 (before the expedition) : meeting at 21:00 at Hostel Picus, near the entrance to the national park of Itatiaia. Overnight in shared room, double or tent (depending on the option chosen). Food not included.
DAY 1 : We will wake up at 6:00 am to have our breakfast , pack our backpacks and check in at the park. We will continue towards BC Rebouças to set up our base camp and start trekking at 9:00 am to the summit of Pico das Agulhas Negras. The access is made by a steep climb made up of several ramps and slabs of stones, which require good footwear adherence. In some places it is necessary to use safety equipment (rope, carabiners and car seat, all included) to be safely transposed even in light rainy days. In order for the real summit (where the book is) to be reached, we must reach the false peak until 12:30 at the latest. On the descent we will do two rappels, one 15 meters and the other 8 meters. Return to BC Rebouças for overnight. Breakfast and dinner included .
