Pedra da Mina, Mountain summit in Serra Fina range, Brazil.

Located between São Paulo and Minas Gerais states, Pedra da Mina rises to 2,798 meters, forming the highest point of the Mantiqueira Mountains.

The first documented climb to the summit occurred in 1955 by a group of German immigrants and local residents who measured its elevation.

The mountain serves as a meeting point for experienced climbers who gather to tackle its vertical trails and technical climbing requirements.

Access requires a challenging day-long hike starting from Passa Quatro town, with winter months from May to September offering the most favorable conditions.

The summit contains distinctive nepheline syenite rock formations, representing the highest elevation of this geological structure in the Americas.
