About this experience

Agulha do Diabo is a 2,050-metre granite tower first climbed in 1940/1941. The approach is a 3 to 4-hour hike, and the climb is about 240 metres between grades 3 and 4, with a chimney, jamming, the 'little horse' move and the 'fingernail' chimney. We do it in one long day of 12 to 14 hours, or over two days with a camp.
