Today we accomplished a full-day walking tour to „Lagoa
do Fogo“ (The Fire Lake) which got this name after the last very
explosive eruption
that had occured in 1564 and was visible even from the Island of Terceira
in the
central group of the Azores archipelago. The difficulty-rating of this walking
trail is "medium "because of its steep slope at the beginning, which
is followed by enjoyable walking through the forest passing by "levada"
(the water channel which brings water from the mountain to the lower
places of the island). From the beginning we had pleasant
weather and in the end we had nice views to the "Lagoa do Fogo" lake
which was not hidden in
the fog this time. Today's walking tour rounded up with a visit to the natural monument of "Caldeira Velha" which is the place with
natural boiling water and also, with the bathing place where our clients
can have a warm bath if they wish.
