About Associação Movimento Trilha Transcarioca

The Trilha Transcarioca is a movement that brings together individuals and civil society organizations committed to implementing, marking, managing, promoting, and enabling the qualified public use of a long-distance trail that connects protected areas in Rio de Janeiro and functions as an ecological corridor between them. The trail extends for approximately 180 km, from Barra de Guaratiba to Morro da Urca, crossing important Atlantic Forest landscapes and urban natural areas. The movement operates through a voluntary and collaborative model, in which volunteers adopt specific trail sections and contribute to trail signage, periodic maintenance, ecological restoration, administrative activities, and communication efforts. Beyond promoting outdoor recreation and environmental awareness, the initiative plays an important role in strengthening ecological connectivity and conserving Atlantic Forest biodiversity.
