Overview

Hiking around the Caldeira is an experience you should not miss out if you visit Faial. This collapsed volcanic cone is one of the main landmarks of Faial. With 2 km in diameter it is an impressive reminder of the force of nature. The trail around the perimeter is about 7 km long and can be done in two to three hours. The hike around the Caldeira is physically easy, but those suffering from vertigo might find a couple of well secured passages a bit of a challenge. This hike is only worthwhile to be done if the weather is clear and the wind is not too strong. You will be rewarded with stunning views of the neighboring islands and the untouched nature.

Caldeira Hike on Faial

Published on Jun, 2024

The Caldeira hike is not to be missed while on Faial. It offers fabulous views and Andreas was an outstanding guide. His knowledge of the island is extensive - hardly a topic he could not discuss and share. We enjoyed a delightful tailgate lunch after the hike. Truly one of the highlights of our trip to the Azores. Highly recommend !
