Typical House of the Capelo Forest Park

Highlight • Structure

Very nice little Parc, here you can wait for the taxi after the hike. Cozy shade places available, as well as toilets.

Cabeço do Fogo Summit

Highlight • Summit

The last ascent goes very steeply between wooden railings. Once at the top, you have a beautiful view of the island west. Partly blowing a strong wind.

Levada Trail of Faial

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Varied hike! The route is partly scree, steep and at Cabego do Fogo with heavy winds. I definitely recommend ankle-high hiking boots with good tread, sure-footedness, enough to drink and a windproof jacket.
