Mountainous Region in Macaé
The Macaense mountainous region has great tourist potential due to the presence of clear and crystalline rivers and waterfalls which form natural beaches appropriate and invitational for bathing. Most outstanding is Cachoeira-Mãe - Mother Waterfall - located in Sana, the 6th district of Macaé, although in other places you can also discover other waterfalls and rivers of rare beauty. On the higher ground there is Pico do Frade - Frade Peak - with its 1429 mts. Another point of peculiar interest is Peito do Pombo - Pigeon Chest - (a high elevation) which does appear to be such when seen from a distance. Normally the first contact of the tourist with the montainous region is to practice radical sport activities. Inns and small hotels with good services have already begun making in-roads into this recent panorama and interacting municipal tourism.
