About This Tour
It is a special activity because it takes place in the afternoon with few people on the route with the possibility to see the Por do Sol over the clouds in the Magic Forest of Fanal, where we will walk through the magic forest of Laurissilva UNESCO natural heritage since 1999. Endemic plants will always be a constant along the route, valleys, mountains and all its surrounding landscape. At the end of the walk we will have the observation of the sunset if the weather conditions allow, in a magical place as is the forest of Fanal with its centuries-old trees. Before arriving at Fanal we will see the north coast of the island of São Vicente, Seixal and Ribeira da Janela with a short stop to take some photos. It is included: transportation, insurance, certified mountain guide and tourist license from Portugal.
