A well-established mountainside path with lots of handrails on the drops. As we near the peaks we enjoy the welcoming cool of the trees on the north of the island.

This walk offers stunning open views from land and sea both high and low and includes the highest sea cliff in Porto Santo. The island's ancient and mixed geology and many endemic species of plants provide an excellent canvas for our ascent. The only place north of here is Iceland.

Terra Chã is the perfect place for a relaxing picnic and is also the location of the Florestal house that can be rented from the IFCN.
