RE: Sete Cidades Hike

in Worldmappin3 months ago

I know you said it wasn't dangerous, but the latter part through the forest looked a bit scary. I've never done a proper hike when I go on holiday, always get a bit worried in case we get lost and not knowing the language, and exactly where we are. Bit of a chicken 😅

Much safer following you around virtually!!! Loved the lakes

Sort:  

The trail through the woods was a one way path back up to the parking lot with no deviagions, so there was no way to get lost on it. There was one section that looked a little risky due to the erosion but it was a low risk I think. The trail just went around the dangerous part. Still some risk of further collapse though I suppose - always a possibility. Everyone speaks English on the islands (from what we could tell) so that part was fine. But if people didn't speak English, yeah, that would also make me nervous too, or if the trail was like through a jungle and there was a possibility of getting lost. We don't do that type of hiking lol
