Volcanoes, lakes and endemic vegetation

Half-day activity – approximately 4 hours

Departure at 14:00 from Espaço Talassa.

It starts with a 20-minute descent into the crater and down to the Purgatório Lagoon: still water, forest all around and a silence you don’t find in many places.

Continue with a short, easy walk (about one hour) around the Caiado and Seca lagoons, before a final 20-minute ascent to Cabeço da Cruz for sweeping views of the island.

Return to Lajes do Pico around 18:00.

These walks are open to everyone (minimum 2 participants) and are of medium difficulty.
(Single supplement applies.)
