How to get to Sugar Loaf?

It is very easy and safe get to Sugar Loaf without a taxi.

Buy the subway ticket "Expresso" ( Subway + Bus) in any subway station ( R$3,80).

Take the subway to Botafogo Station, when you leave the station choose the "Saída Rua Nelson Mandela" exit. Take the bus 511A that will be parked just outside the subway station.

The bus is just like that and it will be "511A Urca" written on it. Use the same ticket that you just used at the subway, the buses leave avery 30 min.



After about 10-12min the bus will get to Av. Pasteur, you have to leave the bus after the Medicine College (big building with lions statues by the stairs) and you walk about 3 min in the same direction until you see a big square and the Sugar Loaf.

To come back take the same bus at the same stop until the subway. It is very easy and cheap.

Special Tip: If you go on a clear day go by the end of the day to see the sunset from up there. It is amazing!!!
