Looking for an unforgettable adventure? A 3-hour ride by the wheel of a buggy, along off-road paths along the mountain of Pico Island is like entering an adrenaline video game, but live and full of nature. Each curve brings a new landscape: endemic plants, volcanic terrain and forests that look like exits from a fairy tale, with closed curves and natural obstacles, but the reward is priceless: an horizon that seems to have no end, with the blue sea contrasting with the intense green of the vegetation and the ash of the volcanic rock. In the middle of the route, there is a short stop to recover breath and take pictures that will cause envy on social networks. It is also the time to feel the connection with nature: the wind in the face, the smell of volcanic earth and the sound of the waves in the distance.
