Sumerá's variant for those who want to cycle out of the city centre or west of it. This variant is not as nice as the one that starts after the Rua Alice, as this road is much wider and busier, as well as longer through urban areas. Still, it is a very pleasant climb for those who want to train at a higher power for a longer time, given that the climb lasts over 12 kilometres and is more even and less steep than many other climbs entering the Parque National da Tijuca.... read more

De variant van Sumerá voor wie uit het centrum of westelijk van het centrum een fietsritje wil maken. Deze variant is niet zo mooi als die variant die begint na de Rua Alice, aangezien deze weg veel breder en drukker is en ook langer door stedelijk gebied loopt. Toch is het een hele aangename klim voor wie langere tijd aan een hoger vermogen wil treinen, gezien de klim ruim 12 kilometer duurt en gelijkmatiger en minder steil is dan vele andere klimmen die het Parque National da Tijuca ingaan.
