    Hiking

    Coming from Pico do Areeiro, you reach this vantage point after about one kilometer. Shortly before is the often photographed staircase with steep precipices on both sides.

    Hiking

    This viewpoint is located just after the Caminho Fino. It is amazing in the light of the rising sun.

    Hiking

    Breathtaking views from the hiking trail. Fortunately, ropes are attached to the boundary posts, which many hikers gladly use. Whether going uphill or downhill, they simply provide a sense of security.
