Porto Santo - Explore Pico Castelo and Pico do Facho hiking tour

Relaxed and informative walk thats adapted to how you want to walk with no pressure. Undertaken by guides who are more than happy to assist you in gaining the most from your experience. After we have collected you we proceed up cobbled roads to the start point at the Canon miradour. We then take one of the 9 km of tracks on Pico Castelo just to make sure you get to see a different side of this mountain walking along stone terraces and wood paths until we get to the picnic area at the top. We pause here to use the facilities have a drink before we go down a different path the the vereda around Pico Facho. This tend to be a flatter path with equally fantastic views, lots of water erosion has sculptured the slopes. From treed shade to open fields this walk changes around every corner. The remains of centuries old farming is still evident although people left here years ago and crops are no longer grown. Beyond our glorious beach if we are lucky Madeira will be floating on the horizon.
