A fantastic hiking trail leads along here, amidst beautiful nature. It winds past vast banana plantations and along Bollullo beach, offering stunning views of the coast and the roaring Atlantic Ocean. Reaching the top, you're rewarded with a magnificent panorama of the Atlantic and the rocky coastline. This hike is highly recommended and quite interesting 👍🏻.

Incredibly intense, sweet smell throughout the gorge - almost like candy.

At the highest point, we stopped to rest and enjoy the view, but we were overwhelmed by the various geckos. What a pleasant surprise! At least 20 geckos came to drink from the water cups right in front of us. A super fun experience!
