TOUR DESCRIPTION OF RUNNING TOUR PORTAIS DE HÉRCULES
In the most special place of Serra dos Órgãos we find the Portals of Hercules, the most beautiful viewpoint of the region that presents us with its geological poetry expressed by several peaks such as São João, Santo Antonio, Cabeça de Peixe and the famous Dedo de Deus, Dedo de Nossa Senhora and Escalavrado.
Before we arrive in the Portals we pass through the Açu Castles, that are rock formations classified as the second highest point (2180m) of the Serra dos Órgãos National Park, with a distance of around 7km, that is, we have a very steep ascent in the beginning.
Although it is a running tour, the pace is pleasant for the runner to enjoy the tour. Therefore, we will walk when pertinent, stop at strategic points for physiological recovery and also to contemplate and photograph.
Hiring this tour requires that you prove that you can do a very intense activity.
