    Hiking

    The passage through the stone wall on the PR1 trail feels like a small gateway to the next stage of the mountain scenery between Pico do Arieiro and Pico Ruivo. Nestled between rough stonework, rock, and panoramic views, it's a striking spot, well worth pausing to get your bearings. Perfect for a photo and a sip of water before the narrow path continues along the ridge.

    Hiking

    For me the most beautiful hiking trail, which I hiked so far. You should be free from giddiness, if it is not, there are also organized hikes from one summit to the other.
