The ancient volcanic caldera that houses the Azul and Verde lagoons provides a unique view of São Miguel Island. On one side, Sete Cidades and the lagoons, on the other, the hills and the Atlantic. This is a special point where you can enjoy the views of the coast, and very soon, go down to Sete Cidades and completely change the landscapes once again.

The mist which shrouded our entire hike, cleared here for unexpected views down to the sea!

Really nice passage and dream views to all sides. am just afraid that in the next years (with additional landslides) this part of the path will be swiped away and disappear forever.
