Eine sehr schöne Rundwanderung auf der Nordflanke des Vulkans Fogo. Die 5km langen Tour führte uns, auf teils unbefestigten Wegen, durch eine üppige Waldlandschaft zum sehr gut besuchten Wasserfall Salto do Calbrito. Von dort ging es über eine schmale, steile Treppe hinauf zu schmalen Eisenstegen. Diese verlaufen meist über einer Wasserpipeline. Es sind ein paar Stellen, bei denen man durch das Gitter in die Tiefe blicken kann, was für Leute mit Höhenangst evtl. herausfordernd ist, aber es ist definitiv machbar. Wir hatten mit unserem Guide Jennifer ein riesen Glück. Da noch weitere deutschsprechende Teilnehmer dabei waren, war die Tour auf deutsch (&spanisch). Jennifer hat ein enormes Wissen über die Insel, so dass wir viel wissenswertes mitgenommen haben. Für die Tour empfiehlt es sich, etwas zu trinken mitzunehmen und vor allem, festes Schuhwerk mit guter Sohle zu tragen. Bei uns war es direkt zu Beginn, etwas rutschig (mit den richtigen Schuhen jedoch kein Problem).

There is only one waterfall in this area and it is this one! There’s a free parking area just off the main road. While you might see a road continuing all the way to the waterfall, it’s marked with a no-entry sign for vehicles. The path is wide and paved with concrete, but quite steep — the round trip takes about 45 minutes. The waterfall itself is nice, though not particularly breathtaking. However, you can dip your feet in the river to cool down, which adds to the experience. Along the way, there’s a small path on the left leading into the forest and down to the river — worth a short detour.

One of the many waterfalls you can admire on the Azores, offering you some nice photo opportunities. After parking your car, be prepared to walk some 500m down a steep asphalt road. Worth the visit if you are passing by, hunting for waterfalls or just in the area.
