Itinerary description

Take an aluguer to Marrador ( the road is perfect, so should cost little).
Lovely walk, lots to see.
You can prolong to Espongeiro, and even the crater. Or walk down to Coculi (just before Corda. The latter will take a long day to finish.
We walked to Cozinha de Bento. A lovely Dutch/Cabo Verde (lunch and coffee) restaurant just past Corda. From there we took a taxi home.

We took this path, which leads to nowhere. At this point go right further up and ignore this path.

Just past this ridge, the environment feels mythical. Like you went back in time.
