    Hiking

    The tarred and concrete road to the “Farol Ponta do Arnel” lighthouse and on to the small fishing port from Nordeste is unusually steep with a 35% incline. Driving on the street with tourist cars is not allowed. The road is also very narrow and - as can be seen from the pictures - concrete curves are lined up like a slalom course.
    We left the car at the top of the main road and learned about the special features of this unique road and the steep coast at Cape “Ponta do Arnel” on foot.

    The road is always open, closed shoes are recommended for walking on the concrete surface.
