Beautiful hike with a mix of nature, views, and history! 🌿 The trail zigzags through dramatic landscapes where you can see the forest slowly coming back to life after past fires — eucalyptus trees sprouting again and lots of local birdlife along the way. The path feels peaceful, with stunning valley and ocean views at different points. You can finish near the lighthouse for a breathtaking peek at the Atlantic, making it a perfect ending spot. Not too crowded, very rewarding, and full of unique scenery — highly recommend for hikers looking for something authentic and scenic.
Beautiful views, flat and can be done in trainers👟 If you want to do the round trip from Ponta do Pargo I recommend doing a little research about the path so you don't walk the wrong way.
Great hike along the levada. Terraced hills a couple of cows, and a few foot bridges.
Nice levada trekking. After two hours walk there is the nice restaurant and bar "Carreta". In case of heavy and long rainfall a small river has to be crossed during the trekking.
We really loved this one. Open nature and very different fauna from the rest of the island. We walked the levada from the start and then back via the village. It was a long walk uphill from the village to the start of the levada though. The village itself is very nice and well worth a walk through.
