   Caldeira das Sete Cidades

   The dirt trail tracing the rim of the Sete Cidades crater is an iconic feature of this breathtaking Azorean landscape. Winding along the edge of this massive volcanic caldera, the path offers some of the most spectacular and sought-after views in the Azores. This unpaved trail varies in width and condition, offering a more natural and rugged hiking experience compared to paved roads. As you follow it, the panorama unfolds continuously. On one side, the vast expanse of the crater floor stretches out, often shrouded in mist or patchwork with green pastures. On the other, the dramatic drop reveals the two legendary lakes – the vibrant green Lagoa Verde and the deep blue Lagoa Azul – potentially joined by a thin strip of land or water, depending on the season and viewpoint.
