Explore a protected reserve, home to many rare endemic plants and invertebrates. Walk along the PR1 Porto Santo walking route along the mountainside path with plenty of protection to a staircase to the top of the second-highest mountain on the island, Pico Branco, with its 480m sea cliff. Continue along a turn-off to the tree-lined Terra Cha, one of the most incredibly scenic picnic spots on the island.
