Cascade of 25 Fontes
Hiking Highlight
A beautiful natural spectacle that you don't see often. The 25 Fontes are certainly worth a visit. However, you share the joy with many other hikers.

Risco
Hiking Highlight
A beautiful waterfall worth seeing. If you want to do this tour, you should start early, as many tourist tours in the course of the day also make this tour and the roads are highly frequented the later it gets.

Waterfall Levada do Alecrim
Hiking Highlight
The only climb on the Rosmarin-Levada, a steep staircase lets us go against the current. A strange feeling of climbing up a staircase while the Levada water rushes towards you.
