Walks in Portugal

6 walks in Portugal - Ribeira Grande, Furnas, Nordeste, Ponta Delgada, Sete Cidades. Each one comes with a map, stories, and questions you answer from what is around you.

Ribeira Grande

Azores: Caldeira Velha and Lagoa do FogoA warm waterfall in a tree-fern jungle, a crater lake you may not even dip a toe in, and a road you cannot drive up during the day in summer.3 km · 180 min
Azores: Ribeira Grande and Gorreana teaA distillery that now shows contemporary art, a bridge that appears on the town's coat of arms, and Europe's oldest tea plantation, where two masters from Macau taught the islanders how to make tea.5 km · 240 min

Furnas

Azores: Furnas – a village on a volcanoA village where water from one spring is sour and from another it boils, a lake on whose shore lunch cooks in the ground all day, and a chapel a man built both as a vow and as his own tomb.5 km · 300 min

Nordeste

Azores: from Nordeste to Vila Franca do CampoA region called the tenth island, the first lighthouse in the Azores, a village nicknamed the nativity crib, the place where the first settlers came ashore, and a town buried by a mountain in a single October night.8 km · 480 min

Ponta Delgada

Azores: Ponta DelgadaA city gate that was moved thirty metres, a church built in thanks for the end of a plague, a statue that emigrants travel from all over the world to see, a fortress against pirates, and pineapples that flower on command.3 km · 180 min

Sete Cidades

Azores: Sete CidadesTwo lakes that legend says were made from the tears of a princess and a shepherd, a hotel that stayed open for a year and a half, a village in a crater that had to dig a way for its water through a mountain, and rocks in the sea that reminded the settlers of a monastery.4 km · 300 min
