The ascent of the Pico de Fogo is perhaps the highlight of a Cape Verde tour. However, you should bring along a good level of fitness on the ascent, a head for heights on the crater rim (secured path) and surefootedness on the descent (partly scree).

Share Felix' enthusiasm. Unlike usual, the descent is also a real highlight. When is it possible to run long distances with fine ashes? Pure fun! Another note: the temperatures at caldera level can go towards zero degrees at night. There is no heating in the accommodation there, and it is still very cool in the morning when you go up. onion look!
