It is the highest mountain in Portugal, the third highest mountain in the Atlantic, and on top of that, you can experience the heat emanating from a virtually extinct volcano at the summit!

Great views of Lagoa Verde and Lagoa Azul. However, a more beautiful view is located a little away from the crowds. Additional parking is available just below the viewpoint.

Perfect spot for a break.

Permission for the climb is necessary and can be applied for online, costs 25€ per person.

Lagoa das Furnas is one of the main attractions of São Miguel Island. It is a volcanic lagoon surrounded by vegetation and geothermal activity, famous for traditional stews made underground. It also houses the Chapel of Nossa Senhora das Vitórias and the Furnas Monitoring and Research Center (CMIF), dedicated to ecological recovery and environmental education.

It is a very well signposted hike. You should have a bit of fitness. Unfortunately there is no place to stop for refreshments on the entire tour. Take food with you in your backpack. A bit slippery and muddy when it rains.
