Levada da Colina da Fajã

Highlight • Trail

flat walk, if you walk this the other way around, you will have the Sunshine pub & grill for lunch, highly recommended, also for dinner (closed on Thursdays).

Walked in mid-March 2024, the effect of the major fire in October 2023 is still clearly visible. It is a somewhat surreal image, many ferns with black trees and shrubs above them. Fortunately, some areas remain untouched here and there and the view of the ocean remains beautiful.

Levada da Fajã

Highlight • Trail

to walk without great height - this hike invites you to relax and think - at the Levada you can cross for many miles, but in wet weather a bit slippery.
