Beschrijving

Embark on a half-day hike to discover the Ponta de São Lourenço Natural Monument. Explore ancient volcanic formations and stunning coastal landscapes while a geologist reveals the secrets behind them.
Along the Ponta de São Lourenço Trail ( PR8 ), you'll encounter multiple geosites and points of geological interest, turning this hike into a true open-air classroom where you can observe, interpret, and understand the volcanic, tectonic, and erosive processes that shaped Madeira. The trail is located within the Ponta de São Lourenço Natural Monument, which offers a unique chance to explore the geological origin and evolution of Madeira, a volcanic island on the African Plate. The experience is further enhanced by the constant presence of the Atlantic Ocean and the peninsula's semi-arid environment, which hosts a distinctive landscape and ecosystem found nowhere else on the island.

Hoogtepunten

  • Discover Madeira’s volcanic geology, with dikes and strata up to 5.57 Ma.
