Pico Peito do Pombo, Mountain summit in Sana District, Macaé, Brazil.
The Peito do Pombo Peak rises to 1300 meters in the Serra da Boa Vista mountain range, offering views of the north coast of Rio de Janeiro state.
In the 1970s, an alternative community established itself near Peito do Pombo, marking a period of settlement that lasted until 1979, when electricity arrived in the region.
The mountain's name translates to Pigeon's Chest in English, reflecting the distinctive shape of its rock formation against the Brazilian mountain landscape.
The ascent to Peito do Pombo requires a four-hour hike through steep trails, necessitating proper hiking equipment and guidance from local experts familiar with the terrain.
From the summit, visitors can observe five different coastal cities: Macaé, Rio das Ostras, Barra de São João, Búzios, and Cabo Frio.
