Caldeirão Verde

🏘️ Santana · Ilha

A lake at the foot of a fall of about a hundred metres, formed by the Ribeiro do Caldeirão Verde, in the heart of the Laurissilva. It is reached by PR 9, from the Queimadas Forest Park: 8.7 km one way, about six and a half hours there and back, four tunnels cut in the rock. The levada that leads to it was dug in the eighteenth century to carry water to the farmland of the parish of Faial.
