December 9, 2022,Arco de São Jorge - Ponta Delgada
Via the Caminho Real, the old royal road along the north coast

Showing Translation

Beautiful tour with a steep incline and great views from the north coast along the Pico do Arco to an iced coffee and so on.

Very demanding hike, path heavily overgrown and partially relocated by a rock fall, so we had to climb over the scree, not without danger
