Pico Island, Azores — A remarkable hiking experience is taking visitors through one of Pico Island’s most iconic landscapes, where nature and centuries of winemaking traditions come together. The scenic trail offers a unique opportunity to explore a protected area recognized for its cultural importance and the extraordinary beauty of its vineyard scenery.
