Pedra do Baú is a striking granite monolith that rises over 1,950 meters above sea level, making it one of the most iconic landmarks in Campos do Jordão. Visitors can hike to the summit via a steep trail that passes through lush Atlantic Forest, rewarded at the top with a 360-degree panorama of the surrounding valleys and peaks. The rock's unique shape resembles a trunk (baú in Portuguese), and the site is popular for rock climbing, paragliding, and photography. The experience combines adventure with breathtaking natural scenery, offering a true escape into the highlands of Brazil.
