A beautiful lake where you can walk along the shore, but not all the way around, perhaps just under half the lake. The road is closed in the summer months from 9am to 7pm, but if you arrive before 9am, you can drive up and return at any time. Careful with Google maps as it determined the road was closed so tried to take us through some roads only designed for land rovers. It's a great walk, but going down and back up needs some fitness. It is well worth the climb down and back up and I would recommend it.
Worth the hike - you start at the viewpoint, and follow down the stairs. You walk all the time by the lake coastline, narrow path. I suggest you take shoes for mountain hikes, don't wear sandals please. The hike takes less than 45 minutes in one direction, and I suggest you end the hike at the first big beach, right around the corner is the second beach much longer than the first one, but it doesn't look that nice. At the beach you can make a stop, before continuig back on the same path to the view point. Nature here is amazing, really worth the effort.
Lagoa do Fogo is one of the highlights on São Miguel. The diverse vegetation around the lake is truly exceptional and beautiful. It's an absolute must-see for everyone. However, it's important to know that between 9:00 AM and 7:00 PM, you can only go up by bus, for which you need to buy a ticket (available in cash or online).
