Old Winch and Viewpoint on Vereda dos Zimbreiros

Highlight • Viewpoint

About 30 m from the path is a viewpoint with a fantastic view and - if you are willing to be flexible - also seating.
In the past, there was a winch here that was used to transport loads to or from Fajã da Ovelha so that they did not have to be carried up the steep path on their backs.

Vereda dos Zimbreiros

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The path is rudimentary paved. Every now and then my 1A has views of the ocean or the place below. The various colorful plant life along the way are then the icing on the cake;)
