From Sete Cidades, walk along the green lake and climb up to the mirador do rei viewpoint. There is a beautiful view of the green and blue lakes. Continue along a wide, almost flat path to the car park at the Lomba do Vasco viewpoint. Head back down towards Sete Cidades on a short stretch of road, then turn left at the bend and take a signposted path on the right further on. Return via a very steep downhill road, which will really work your thighs... You can return to the town centre by following the Azure Lake or, for a shorter route, take the first street on the right at the bottom of the slope. A very pretty circular walk.
