View of Lagoa do Fogo

Highlight • Viewpoint

Viewpoint on the Lagoa di Fogo. It's only worth it if you see the antennas on the mountain when you leave PDL. Then no clouds are expected.

View of Lagoa do Fogo from Pico do Barrosa

Highlight • Viewpoint

From Pico do Barrosa, you'll have arguably one of the most beautiful views. Not only of Lagoa do Fogo, but also of much of the island. The short, steep climb is well worth it.

The road is only partially accessible during peak travel season. So either leave early or use the shuttle bus system.

Pico da Barrosa

Highlight • Summit

Pico da Barrosa is one of the main elevations on São Miguel Island, with almost 1000 meters of altitude. It is the highest point in the Serra de Água de Pau, and from here you can admire both Lagoa do Fogo and much of the island.
