This walking excursion towards Lagoa do Fogo takes you into one of São Miguel’s most powerful natural environments. The trail crosses a forest of eucalyptus, acacia and ginger lilies, follows old levadas and reveals endemic plants, before opening onto views over the south coast of the island and the islet of Vila Franca do Campo.

The hike offers that special Azores feeling: generous, almost raw nature that seems to change at every turn. In 3 hours, you enjoy an active and contemplative escape, ideal for leaving the classic roads behind and feeling the energy of the island all the way to the Lagoa do Fogo lake.
