Terra Alta Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

Pico Island has more than 20 protected areas, with Terra Alta occupying the northwest portion of the island. This viewpoint, also called Terra Alta, is an observation point for practically every site. There is a parking lot nearby and it serves as a starting point for the so-called Caminho das Voltas.

Transversal Road of Pico Island

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The road that follows the eastern ridge of Pico Island offers unique landscapes - some of the most beautiful in the Azores. It is worth pointing out, however, that the floor is somewhat "rustic", and is not in the best condition. So a 35mm tire wouldn't be a bad choice here.

Lagoa do Caiado

Highlight • Lake

Lagoa do Caiado is the highest located on Pico Island, with more than 800m above sea level. In addition to being a site of exuberant beauty, with views of Pico Mountain, it is also a place of high biological interest. It is one of the few lakes in the Azores where no invasive species have been introduced.
