Pico do Calçado

Pico do Calçado, with an elevation of 2849 meters, is unofficially Brazil's fourth highest mountain. It is also the unofficial second highest mountain in the states of Espírito Santo and Minas Gerais, which it shares.


The peak is located in the Caparaó National Park, near the municipalities of Ibitirama (Espírito Santo) and Alto Caparaó (Minas Gerais). It is located in the highest block of the Serra do Caparaó, less than 1 km from Pico da Bandeira in a straight line.


Until 2004, the peak altitude was given as 2766 meters, but during the Brazil Summits Project, a more precise GPS measurement confirmed the altitude to be 2849 meters.


The trail begins in Casa Queimada, on the Minas Gerais side, and follows the dividing ridge between the states of Espírito Santo and Minas Gerais, eventually reaching its wide summit via a "climbing" in the rock. The trail then continues on to Pico da Bandeira. With little vegetation and rocks at its summit, the mountain is relatively easy to climb.


Location: Espírito Santo and Minas Gerais, Brasil

Elevation: 2849 m ( 9347 ft)
