Itinerary

The day begins towards the south coast of the island. A comfortable stop in Vila Franca do Campo, the island's first capital, to savor the “Queijadas da Vila”, the typical desserts. Arrival to Lagoa das Furnas for the hike

.

This hike allows you to discover and enjoy the wonderful views of the island of São Miguel. It starts in the parish of Furnas and allows you to stroll through the wonderful Lagoa das Furnas. It's an easy and accessible walk along a dirt road. Along the trail, you'll be able to see the “" Lagoa boilers "”, an area where locals use the high ground temperatures to make traditional cooked

meals.

The trail continues along the lagoon enjoying the serenity of the lake and its surroundings. Before and back, you will find the Church of Our Lady of Victories, with a neogistic architecture from the 19th century, and a view of Pico Gaspar, which offers a magnificent view of the parish of

Furnas, where the walk ends.

After lunch, we visited this beautiful area, these different landscapes, with these fumaroles and hot springs and, if you want, you can even try your mineral water. Then, a stop is made at “" Pico do Ferro "”, where you can admire the excellent view of the crater surrounding the Furnas Valley. We continue our tour along the north coast visiting the “" Gorreana "” tea plantation and factory, unique in Europe, where you can enjoy a cup of tea and the magnificent view of the plantations and the island's

north coast.

On the way back to the hotel, we stopped at the Santa Iria viewpoint to admire the majestic cliffs of the island's north coast.
