About

The scenery is stunning and the climate is exceptional at Pico do Papagaio, making it a desirable destination for visitors. It would be beneficial to have a map indicating the cities that can be observed from this vantage point; while some are identifiable, others remain unknown. Unfortunately, access to the peak is hindered by poor signage and limited directions provided.

(Translated by Google) The place is very beautiful, access is not very easy, but it is possible to get there. The view is truly spectacular. (Original) O lugar é muito bonito, o acesso não é muito fácil, mas dá pra chegar. A vista é realmente espetacular.
(Translated by Google) Getting to the peak of the parrot is quite challenging when you don't have a guide. The route indicated by Google Maps is not viable for conventional cars, only 4x4s, and even then, if you ask people they will show you a much easier route. The best thing to do is to go with a guide or pay a motorcycle taxi to take you there. The experience is unique, the view is wonderful and worth all the effort. At the peak there is a restaurant, some shops with souvenirs and parking. I paid 6 reais per person to access the peak and considering the infrastructure you find, the price is fair. (Original) Chegar ao pico do papagaio é um tanto desafiador quando você não tem um guia. O caminho que o Google maps indica não é viável pra carros convencionais, só 4x4 e olhe lá, se você for perguntando as pessoas eles irão te indicar um caminho bem mais fácil, ideal mesmo é ir com guia ou pagar um mototáxista pra te levar até lá. A experiência é única, a vista é maravilhosa e vale todo o esforço. No pico tem um restaurante, algumas lojas com lembrancinhas e estacionamento. Paguei 6 reais por pessoa pra ter acesso ao pico e pela infraestrutura que você encontra o valor é justo.

Know before you go

  • Consider hiring a local guide or using transportation services due to challenging access routes
  • Arrive early on busy days to avoid traffic congestion and catch memorable sunsets
  • Be prepared for uneven dirt roads via Triunfo route; opt for cars with good shock absorbers
  • Bring cash as there might be an entrance fee payable only in currency; negotiate prices beforehand if opting for additional services at the peak

Reviews

Pico do Papagaio, the highest point in Pernambuco at 1260 meters, offers a truly spectacular view of the Paraíba and Pernambuco hinterland. Visitors mention that access to this beautiful place is challenging but worth it for the breathtaking panorama. Some recommend going with a local guide or paying for transportation due to the rough terrain. The site features shops, a sculpture symbolizing the city, and even wine production tours. Despite some difficulties like poor signage and cash-only entrance fees, travelers find the experience unique and rewarding.

(Translated by Google) A place of peace, tranquility and beauty: I had the pleasure of visiting it in April 2025, during the Easter holidays. It was very crowded. For those who like to see cities from afar, take photos and have a moment of reflection, like me, you will really like it. I won't go into these details because each experience is unique. So, to make the most of the place, here goes... Some important details: if you go on a busy day like we did (especially holidays), it is best to leave early to avoid traffic and not miss the sunset. Regarding the route, I can say that until the date I visited, the stretch (via Triunfo) is completely dirt and quite uneven, so it is best to prefer transportation by car or van. (It can be a little uncomfortable by motorcycle, but you can get there too). When you get to the place, you have to pay a symbolic entrance fee. It is not all sunshine and roses, but it is worth every penny. There are shops at the top and also a kiosk with bathrooms. The place is accessible. It has Wi-Fi and 4G signal. I'm not sure if it's allowed to camp for free on site. It's important that children are supervised by their guardians, as the site is quite high and even with a protective fence, you should be careful. Below I'll leave some photos I took of this unforgettable trip: Overall rating: 9/10. (Original) Um local de paz, tranquilidade e beleza: tive o prazer de conhecer em abril de 2025, no feriado de páscoa, estava bem lotado. Pra quem gosta de visualizar cidades ao longe, fotografar e ter um momento reflexivo, como eu, vai gostar muito. Não irei entrar nesses detalhes pois cada experiência é única. Então para que façam um bom proveito do lugar aqui vai... Alguns detalhes importantes: caso vá em um dia movimentado como fomos (principalmente feriados), o ideal é sair cedo para evitar trânsito e não perder o pôr do sol. Sobre o percurso, afirmo que até a data que visitei, o trecho (via Triunfo) é totalmente de terra e bastante desigual, então é bom dar preferência ao transporte de carro ou van. (De moto pode ser um pouco desconfortável mas dá pra chegar também). Chegando ao local é necessário pagar uma taxa de entrada simbólica, nem tudo são flores, mas vale cada centavo. Lá em cima tem lojinhas e também um quiosque com banheiros. O local tem acessibilidade. Tem Wifi e sinal de 4G. Não tenho certeza se é permitido acampar de graça no local. É importante que crianças sejam supervisionadas pelos responsáveis, o local é bem alto e mesmo com grade de proteção se deve ter cuidado. Abaixo estarei deixando alguns registros que fiz desse passeio inesquecível: Nota geral: 9/10.

(Translated by Google) My favorite spot in Triunfo! The view is beautiful, and you're right next to the clouds. Admission is 6 reais. Bring a jacket, it's quite cold up there! (Original) Meu lugar preferido de Triunfo! A vista é linda e você fica ao lado das nuvens. A entrada custa 6 reais. Leve casaco, pois é bem frio lá em cima!
