View of the Cliffs Between Fajã de São João and Fajã dos Vimes

Highlight • Viewpoint

Excellent trail, starting at 'faja dos vimes' going up to 'lourais', this first part is a little between trees which makes the views difficult, but it will be rewarded on the way down to 'sao João' with beautiful views over the cliffs

Chapel of Saint George (Fajã dos Vimes)

Highlight • Religious Site

The small Chapel of São Jorge is located in Fajã dos Vimes, on the island of the same name. The date of its construction is not known for certain, but everything indicates that it was built in the 18th century - there having been an even older one destroyed by an earthquake, with the current chapel being rebuilt on that occasion.
