The Azores Archipelago has volcanic origins and is considered by many to have exceptional landscape due to this influence.  Recent eruptions are visible and can be visited. The volcanic origins of the islands created mountains and valleys covered by a luxurious and varied   vegetation, lakes in ancient volcano craters, hot water springs, thermal hot-water fountains and cascades, stupendous peaks contrasting with cultivated fields. We offer organized trips to several geological interest spots.

 

Canyoning in Nordeste

Jump, slide and abseil in a totally natural environment, descending along streams that flow from the mountain top, completely surrounded by endemic forest.

 

Paddle board or kayak in Sete Cidades

Kayaking and paddle boarding are fun ways to experience the lake and be one with the water and its surroundings. Stand-up paddle boarding is becoming very popular and is easy to master.
