Hiking

Here the hiker meets the stream bed of the ravine Ribeira Seca ou do Paul. A splendid spot that, when overcome, offers a much more magnificent view of the Atlantic Ocean.

Very nice way. Surefootedness is an advantage. However, on days with rain or thunderstorms, the up / down to or from the Ribeira Seca should be treated with caution, since the light earth turns it into a very muddy and slippery affair with associated hazards! So pay attention :)

... you have to literally cross the stream over "stick and stone". No attachment.
