When the sky is blue or the clouds are so high that Caldeira is clear of them, you absolutely have to come here. The path is demanding and there are a few meters to climb. Sometimes it is muddy and trodden, because obviously the cows also love the view from up here. An absolutely fascinating place, which is only worthwhile when the visibility is good.
