Explore uma das trilhas mais famoso de Santo Antão e caminhe desde o Parque Natural da Cova até ao Vale Verde do Paul acompanhado de um guia local. Aproveite para contemplar vistas deslumbrantes dos vales verdejantes.
A magnificent walk from east to west on Santo Antão, the archipelago's pedestrian island par excellence. From the green terraced slopes of the north-east coast to the remote, mineral valleys of the west coast, this exclusive journey is a true immersion in nature and Cape Verdean culture. Every night, you'll find the warmth of your hosts for a well-deserved rest. From the most emblematic walks to the more intimate hikes, you'll travel along contrasting routes, through grandiose landscapes with steep peaks. The circuit ends at the magnificent Tarrafal beach, a fishing village at the end of the island.
Arrive by ferry and transfer to Cova Crater. This hike is considered one of the most beautiful on the island. Even the locals call it their paradise, a garden of Eden, where due to the subtropical temperature fruit and vegetables grow in abundance. Walk down from Cova Crater on old cobbled paths to Paul Valley, passing terraced fields of sweet potato and Congo beans, and banana, almond, and mango trees.
The hike from Ponta do Sol via Fontainhas to Cruzinha da Garça is one of the absolute highlights on Santo Antão and is considered the queen of coastal hikes. Start in the fishing village of Ponta do Sol and follow the paved road towards Fontainhas.
Depart for Corda via the mythical paved road that crosses the island of Santo Antão towards Coculi. Enjoy magnificent views of terraced crops from Corda. After 2-3 hours of walking through the fields, discover Coculi, a small village with the church boasting the biggest bells on the island. Return to Sao Vicente in the afternoon.
