Before lunch, we will visit the area of -Caldeiras next to the Furnas lake, where we will attend demonstrations to the traditional Cozido and learn how to cook in the Caldeiras. In the afternoon, we will experience the way the inhabitants of this parish live with a dormant volcano and where you can taste the waters that come directly from the rocks. The return to Ponta Delgada will be made by the North Coast, with passage and stop at miradouro do Pico do Ferro, a viewpoint with superb views of the parish and lagoa das Furnas.
