This is a seldom-used quiet path along the unspoilt north cliffs of the island when the only sound tends to be the sea and calls of nature. The walk starts with a climb to the Espigão radar and then follows a ridge path over the golf course to the centre of the island and onward to the Fonte da Areia.

The surfaces are good without any close drop-offs and the views are very different to what is normally seen on other walks. Due to its isolation, we suggest bringing food and drink to fuel this walk.
