Pinhao, Lombo Branco & Sinagoga Hike

We will pick you up at your hotel in Ribeira Grande at the designated time and travel to Pinhao, the starting point of the hiking route.

At nearly 2,000 feet above sea level, we will explore the vegetation of Santo Antão. The trail includes streams and hills, offering views of the green valleys. We will make stops along the route to share stories about the towns on the island.

We will visit Lombo Branco, where you can observe local farmers and the diverse plants and animals, including cows, goats, horses, and donkeys.

The final segment of the hike will take us to Sinagoga, a former site of a Jewish community expelled from Portugal. Sinagoga features natural pools, where you may swim in the crystal clear waters, weather permitting.

Afterwards, we will return by minibus to your hotel. The excursion lasts a total of 4 hours.
