Description
On this easy hike you will walk along paths built many years ago and admire the beauty of some of the villages on the northern coast of the island.
The journey through this landscape reveals a mesmerizing panorama that includes the majestic Eagle's Rock. As our walk draws to a close, we find ourselves in the company of a remarkable natural wonder: a soaring rock formation that reaches a remarkable height of 590 meters. Adjacent to this awe-inspiring monolith, an ancient water mill stands as a testament to history. Once harnessing the power of the levada's waters to saw wood, this mill narrates a tale of innovation and adaptation to the island's resources.
Join us as we explore the enchanting tapestry of Porto da Cruz, a testament to nature's allure and humanity's harmonious collaboration with the land.
