Grota Tunnel

Highlight • Structure

Nice hike to the end of the gorge, looks great there. You have to walk through several tunnels, which is fun.

Forest Stair Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

At the end of the beautiful path you come across this rare stair bridge. It's quite steep and has a wobbly wooden handrail. But everything is OK. You should definitely take a look at it.

Staircase Through the Riverbed (Trilho da Janela do Inferno)

Highlight • Bridge

Why do bridges always have to be built, if there is another way? Here's a nice alternative to a straight bridge.

Small Aqueduct Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

At this point you come across a very narrow bridge that you have to cross for the hike. At the same time, this bridge serves as a water pipe.

View of Ponta Delgada

Highlight • Viewpoint

We also really enjoyed the view of Ponta Delgada on the way back. Again and again the hydrangea hedges revealed a view of the coastal city.
