The drive into and out of Faial da Terra where this waterfall hike is located is a treat for your senses. We first had lunch in the town, then made our way to the parking lot at the beginning of the trail. Now this is a hike. It’s beautiful, and uphill most of the way to the waterfall. We were accompanied by several roosters and chickens along the trail. They’re surprisingly nice hiking companions! The waterfall was huge and worth hiking to. In summer, this is definitely a place you would reward yourself with a swim! On the hike down, take the detour towards Sanguinho. This is a formerly abandoned town that now has some people moving back in. It was so cool to see and the views of the valley are fantastic. The walk back down is on a winding, cobbled path. A very worthwhile detour! This was probably our favorite hike of our trip, and the most challenging one we did.

I had a great time with Bluebike Furnas. Wasn't sure I was going to be able to ride around the lake since I'm used to riding my bike in plane cities. But it was actually a lot of fun and easy and the bikes were very smooth and perfect. The road is pretty good and the view is breath taking. The owner is a charming young man and speaks really good English (I also heard him speak French). We wanted to take other routes that he suggested but it was a bit late already. I'll definitely come back for those.
