The Nuns Path hiking route (end)

The Nuns Path hiking route (end) is the finale of a scenic route that begins at the Eira do Serrado viewpoint (1,095 meters above sea level) and leads down to the village of Curral das Freiras.

The trail owes its name to the nuns who fled here from pirates haunting the island. The narrow path winds between chestnut trees, offering breathtaking views of the valley.

After completing the 1-2 hour hike, you can explore the charming village of Curral das Freiras (Valley of the Nuns) and enjoy local delicacies. The trail is easy to moderately difficult, ideal for those in good physical condition.
