Description
A very special hike with a special guide.
We meet at Villa Amore and start our hike with a short stretch along the main road. Then the steep ascent towards Raposeira begins. The path is wild, steep and slippery in places – but the higher we get, the more impressive the view of Paul do Mar becomes.
Kitty runs ahead, sometimes disappearing for a while, but always returning to see if we can still keep up. It takes us through fields and meadows as we enjoy the silence, breathe in the fresh air and discover the variety of flowers. Finally, we reach Raposeira, where old houses and friendly locals who are always open to a little chat await us.
Our route takes us along a levada for a while before we switch to a newly constructed path towards Fajã da Ovelha. The views are simply spectacular! We then walk along the road for a short distance – Kitty, now reluctantly on a lead, acts as if she hasn’t taken a single step.
We finally reach the starting point of our descent from Fajã da Ovelha to Paul do Mar. We head downhill in the warm sun, always towards the sea. Once we reach the bottom, the water invites us to swim or enjoy a cool drink in the Bar da Praia. Kitty is greeted enthusiastically by the locals – and is still full of energy!
