Bike route through Furnas with transport 3h

The Azores hold hundreds of mysteries that you still have to discover. If you want to get to know the volcano and the Furnas calderas but refuse the long hikes through the mountains, we suggest you take an original bicycle route through the east of São Miguel .

Although the meeting point will be confirmed after making the reservation, you will surely depart from the capital of the island, Ponta Delgada , which is only 10 minutes from the airport. There you will meet the monitor and the rest of the group and head to Furnas along the south coast of São Miguel.

You will need to bring suitable sports shoes for cycling, a windbreaker or light jacket, water, sunscreen, a hat or sunglasses and a backpack where you can store everything. As a recommendation, it would be advisable to bring bicycle gloves.

This MTB excursion through the Furnas Valley is of low-medium level , so you shouldn't worry if you don't ride your bike regularly. Throughout the tour you will go around Furnas Lake , discovering the calderas of the old volcano and the fumaroles that are found there.

After crossing the lake, you will head southwest until you reach Lombo dos Milhos , where you will be fascinated by the immensity and beauty of the green landscapes that cover the hills of the area.

At the end of this bicycle route you will go back from Furnas to the meeting point, where the activity will have ended.
