Waterfall at the entrance to Fajã do Rodrigues Tunnel
Highlight • Waterfall
That's just something for the hard-core. We turned around a third. After a while, one wonders why I voluntarily walk through a narrow, dripping tunnel through which I have to go back.

Ribeira Seca Gorge Trail
Highlight (Segment) • Gorge
Here the hiker meets the stream bed of the ravine Ribeira Seca ou do Paul. A splendid spot that, when overcome, offers a much more magnificent view of the Atlantic Ocean.
