Nordeste Tour & Faial da Terra Hiking Tour

We'll pick you up at your hotel in Ponta Delgada at 9 am and drive to Faial da Terra, a small area of São Miguel, where we'll embark on a hiking route.

We'll walk through vegetation and mountains, passing by Sanguinho, a village abandoned in the '70s that has been rebuilt. Afterwards, we'll continue to the Salto do Prego waterfall, where you'll have time to enjoy the surroundings and take a dip if you wish. Here we'll also have a picnic lunch, which includes a sandwich, cake, fruit, juice, and water.

After lunch, we'll walk back to Faial da Terra, where you'll have free time to explore the old fishing harbour before boarding the bus to Nordeste.

You'll be impressed by the green cliffs with flowers surrounding this town. Ponta do Sossego and Vista dos Barcos are two viewpoints where we'll stop to admire the natural beauty.

Our next stop will be at the Ribeira dos Caldeirões Natural Park, where we will see several waterfalls, some up to 131 feet tall (40 metres).

Finally, we'll return to the starting point at around 4:30 pm.
