"Little goat’s jump", São Miguel, Azores

One cannot imagine
this walk’s beauty before you did it.
The trail is marked to be done in the
opposite way then the one I usually do it but I have my reasons. So, start
walking at Caldeiras da Ribeira Grande where you can find some fumaroles making
bubbles on the outdoor water tanks you can find there is a pleasant way of
start this adventure.
I find quite annoying walking on the tar
roads. However the surroundings are so lovely that it really doesn’t matter …
or maybe I say so because I love the Azores.
Anyway, by the time you arrive at the
small electric plant you will have to climb some stairs to walk on a platform
on top of some big tubes/pipes.
Well, you can find it odd but you will
love it. It will allow you to have a top bottom prespective that will be even
better inside of a small canyon you will have to cross.
At the end of the canyon you will find a
precious waterfall called Salto do Cabrito “little goat’s jump”.
A gorgeous place.
