    Hiking

    About 30 m from the path is a viewpoint with a fantastic view and - if you are willing to be flexible - also seating.
    In the past, there was a winch here that was used to transport loads to or from Fajã da Ovelha so that they did not have to be carried up the steep path on their backs.

    Hiking

    A short detour from the climb is worthwhile, take a short break 😅

    A nice resting place on the ascent. This is where loads used to be transported.
