If you have accepted the challenge of climbing Pico Mountain, congratulations! With us, the climb will be at your pace with a dedicated Guide. Calm down because we have all day just for you. Meeting at the "Mountain House", if you do not want "transfer included", it is time to check if we all have the proper equipment, protection, food, water and of course, the camera. Our guide will accompany you along a trail, much of it in very irregular volcanic rock, which will require some effort and care. . Reaching the summit, the effort is rewarded by breathtaking, breathtaking landscapes. First the crater, then the last stage: the Piquinho. This, with its 70 m high, will give more "fight" but inevitable to achieve the goal: 2351 m altitude, the highest point of the island of Pico, the Azores and Portugal. You will also see the 'fumaroles' that show the grandeur of the (dormant) volcano. Land Tours wishes you a good climb!
