Tips from locals
Great hike, less views but over 5 waterfalls to visit and lots of great hiking and nature. This area I'd suggest you use a guide.
Located at Parque Nacional da Tijuca, The Horto Waterfall is a short trail (30 minutes) along the forest and at the end you will encounter two waterfalls. We strongly recommend the use of closed footwear since the trail can be slippery.
The Tijuca forest is the largest urban forest in the world and is beautiful! There are many trails and waterfalls and it is a great place to go to avoid the heat!
