Walking Tour Ribeira Funda - Praia da Viola
Overview
The walking starts in an opened area, turning into a path with dense vegetation, mostly composed by Australian Cheesewood and Ginger Lilys . The trail then leads us to some old water mills that were once used in the confection of bread and passing by various streams until we reach a viewpoint, from where we can see our next stop: Praia da Viola beach, a small tranquil beach with rough sand , flanked by a cliff with several water springs .Afterwards we are going through a trail that takes us to the end of the tour, in the small parish of Maia. Some parts are very narrow and very steep, and might also be slippery. On the return to Ponta Delgada, there is still time to stop at the oldest tea factory of São Miguel, Gorreana tea factory for the tea tasting and stopping in Caldeira Velha, where it’s possible to have a bath in the relaxing hot waters. Back on the road, after a brief drive in the south coast, the activity ends with the arrival in Ponta Delgada.
