Vinhas da Criação Velha

Highlight • Natural Monument

This beautiful, easy hike leads through a large, active wine-growing area whose walls are perfectly preserved (a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2004).

Perfect when the clouds linger in the highlands. Several swimming opportunities are available.

Well-trodden road. Easy walking shoes are sufficient. The route is flat with negligible elevation gain. Beautiful views of the ocean and island.

Church of Saint Mary Magdalene

Highlight • Religious Site

The Igreja de Santa Maria Madalena church stands above the small natural harbor of Madalena and forms the center of the town. In the immediate vicinity are various restaurants and the ferry port, from which one can translate to Fajal.
