Reserva Florestal do Grajaú, Nature reserve in Grajaú, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The reserve spans 550,000 square meters of protected land, featuring diverse vegetation including mango trees, cashew trees, Brazilian rosewood, and white cedars.
The area belonged to a real estate company until 1975 when it was transferred to the state as debt payment following intense landslides affecting neighboring buildings.
The reserve functions as a gathering place where local residents practice sports, engage in hiking activities, and participate in environmental education programs.
Eight different trails lead to various points within the reserve, including the path to Papagaio Peak at 975 meters altitude.
The reserve contains a 400-meter climbing wall and numerous boulders that provide opportunities for both traditional climbing and sport routes.
