This can be called the “Pico Tour” because it goes around the island, having even been the route used in the medium course of the Azores Granfondo.
A very pleasant route always with good roads and good scenery, where in the northern part we will always be watching the island of S. Jorge until we reach Piedade, the tip of the island. On the way back through the south, after passing the Lages, we start to have visibility of Faial in some parts, which creates a curious optical illusion for those less familiar, who think the horizon is still to come, thus still having a lot to travel… fortunately it is only the neighboring island…
Derived from the technical difficulty and the stamina requirements.
