Our Hiking Experiences
At Lava Trails, we take you to the heart of the São Miguel Island most stunning landscapes, where nature tells its story through volcanic craters, steaming fumaroles, wild waterfalls, and breathtaking lagoons, amidst rich and unique cultural heritage sites. All our personally-designed hiking experiences follow trails shaped by time, revealing the power of sleeping volcanoes and the unique beauty of the Azores.
Each one of our tours comes with two flexible options to match your adventure style and vacation arrangements. Our "Tour with Pick Up" experience is perfect for those who want the complete package, including hassle-free pick-up and drop-off, an unforgettable hike, lunch and a scenic van tour to unwind and take in even more breathtaking panoramic views and experiences. A longer, yet relaxing day. If you're looking for something shorter but just as thrilling, our "Tour with Meeting Point" experience focuses purely on the hike, giving you the opportunity to join us with your own private transportation on an unforgettable hiking experience without the extra add-ons but relying on our expertise and know-how. No matter your schedule or skill level, we have a safe hiking experience tailored, just for you.
