Lago di Canario
A beautiful walk from Lago di Canario to the Grota Di Inferno viewpoint. Parking at the start, two viewpoints over the lake, then a wide path to the viewpoint. The viewpoint stretches for 200 metres, forming a small path with magnificent views. Return via the same route.

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.

Departure from Vila Franca do Campo (Azores)
Return to the shore of Lago do Fogo
Starting from the car park at the foot of the slope, the road remains a wide track until it turns into a path after a hotel complex.
After a steeper section, the route becomes almost flat and runs alongside an irrigation channel under the trees, finally opening out onto a clearing where several channels converge from the hills above.
The viewpoint over the lake is then close by, and you can continue by following the track to the right.
