Itinerary description
Probably one of the most breathtaking and beautiful trails ever done in the azores.
Rich of different road types, flora and fauna (lots of birds), but especially the Cascade Pequena (little spot where you can take a swim at 30% of the trail.)
The first part is a very steep descend going from 750m/800m to 0m reaching the bay of Santo Cristo (unbelievable surfing spot).
From here you have two options, first you can continue walking for about 4.5km (1H if you go at a good pace) or take a Quadbike transfer for 25€, if you are tired or late. I suggest to take the walk very nice and relaxing.
Remember to book the taxi for the way back! No car can reach santo cristo, best to book a taxi to Faja dos Cubres
