Submitted by admin on Tue, 03/07/2023 - 09:58
We go to the highest point of the island (1105 m) where we have a privileged view over the whole island, on days with little cloudiness, or even a mystical experience in the mist of the Azores. Crossing the Pico da Vara Nature Reserve, we follow a dirt track with great landscape diversity, starting in a naturally flavored cryptomeria forest. We will move on to a typical mountain route in the Azores, with low vegetation. This is an area with a rich biodiversity, of great importance for the recovery of the Laurissilva forest and the priolo, one of the few species of fauna endemic to the Azores.
