What you can expect

  • After being picked up by your live guide, depart from your accommodation to discover the wonders of the island of Santiago.

    After a one-hour drive, passing through mountains, deep valleys, and villages in the island's interior, upon arriving at Serra Malagueta, begin your hike at 750 metres in the natural park.

    After an hour's walk with your live guide explaining the park's endemic plants and animals, begin your 900-meter descent to the Gongon Valley from Antena, with the most beautiful view of the island's east coast.

    Then you will arrive at the first house of the local inhabitants, where you will have the opportunity to interact and see what daily life is like for these resilient people who live on one of the highest points of the island with few resources.

    Enjoy your picnic in contact with nature, with plantations of mango, banana, sugarcane, and inhame, and its typical houses, most of which are abandoned.

    At the end of the hike, we will stop at a local restaurant for a cool drink.

    Drop-off at your accommodation.
