We continue along a narrow path with many giant reeds (arundo donax), finding several small water courses and typical Azorean sceneries (green fields, pastures, sea and also some animals). After walking this dirt road for a while, we will find the road and shortly after, Maia’s fishing port, where the trail ends. If you want to refresh yourself with a quick swim, we can walk a bit more to the village’s natural pools.

This is definitely the best way to enjoy the Sete Cidades environment, feeling the amazing energy and beauty of the place. A picnic lunch is enjoyed on the lake shore. In the afternoon we drive along the south coast and pass by Ferraria where we find a wonderful hot water bathing area that was created by the formation of a small crater and volcanic fissure from which the surrounding ocean water is heated. What a perfect way to end our adventurous day!
