Hiking

Pico das Camarinhas, located in the parish of Ginetes, is a Regional Natural Monument notable for its granular rocks rich in rare ores, the result of volcanic activities. At 219 meters high, its eruption in 1713 caused significant destruction in neighboring locations, emitting hot mud and gases, and marking the geological history of the region.

Volcanic cone with a great view. Lots of steps up and just as many down on the other side

Many steps up and down. On the way down, wonderfully blooming butterfly ginger again.
