Hiking
The best way to explore Fogo Island is by foot, wandering through scenery that will often surprise you.
Hike or walk over 200 kilometres of paths and trails to discover abandoned communities, towering art studios, craggy shores, and boreal forests. Go your own way or follow one of our expert naturalists who will identify flora and fauna and share the stories of our natural world. Explore our Hiking Trails to see what awaits.
Combine Hiking with our Foraging Workshops, Bushcraft, or Wildlife Watching.
