About this Experience:

Dive into the details and see what makes this experience truly unique.

Hiking is a unique hike where, in the depths of the valley of the plateau of Paúl da Serra, one can admire lagoons and rock formations that have been excavated over the thousands of years of water that cross the mountain, forming magnificent waterfalls. As we explore the valley, we pass through a vast expanse of terrain, from the plain of the levadas to the changing mountains, along trails almost blurred by the forest until we reach the oldest levada on the west side of the island.
