Hiking
The abandoned levada trail overlooking the São Jorge Valley, with its overgrown walls and still water, seems like a relic from another time. Between ferns, mosses, and weathered stones, breathtaking views repeatedly open up, revealing the verdant valley, the terraced fields, and the Atlantic Ocean in the distance. The sometimes narrow, poorly maintained path requires caution and sure footing, but rewards you with a particularly tranquil and pristine atmosphere.

A small detour on an abandoned levada. The path has partially broken away and the ferns are growing rampant. But the view of the valley of São Jorge is great.
