Sugar Loaf

(Pão de Açúcar), a mountain in Brazil. It rises 395 m above the entrance to Guanabara Bay in the city of Rio de Janeiro.

Formed of gneisses, Sugar Loaf Mountain has a conical shape resembling a sugarloaf. Similar formations, resulting from tropical weathering, have also received the name “sugarloaf.”
