lagoa do fogo印象
-
A great scenic overlook view from the tops of the mountain of the beautiful crater lake. If you're not obscured by clouds, you can see the ocean on both sides of the island while enjoying the lake view. If you have time, it looks like it would be a nice, but steep hike to the lake.

I personally thought it was better than Sete Cidades because of the stunning views. There are several geothermal plants on the way and the hot springs is just down the road where you can take a really hot bath with a hot waterfall and a small museum...I don't understand how folks can give 3* due to weather. We were there in December and since we had a rental car, went there twice. The clouds do come down really fast and totally cover the view...

5* view but 2* accessibility. Lagoa do Fogo is a volcanic lake high in the mountains not far from the town of Lagoa. The route to the lake is easy to find, but as others have said, this visit is massively weather-dependent. It's very often foggy, rainy, cloudy. Our first time up was a decent day elsewhere, but we had less than 30ft visibility at the heights - which made driving the winding roads scary and with no views at all for payback. The second time we went was the sunniest day we had on Sao Miguel - and the views were gorgeous (you can see north and south coasts of the island from the peaks on a clear day)! We didn't have the chance to hike the steep path down to the lake and around it - though that looks amazing (if you hit the right day/time!). Choose the sunniest day - afternoon so the cloud has burned off. The temps on top were 3-4C colder than in town, it was very windy, there are some places to pull over and enjoy the views but no way to drive down to the lake, and there is a gorgeous hot spring on the north side, lower slopes. Save time for this hot-spring - it's only about E4 to get in. Trying to see Fogo in nice weather was a juggling act and I genuinely liked Sete Cidades much better.

Clear day and could see both sides of the island at once. No traffic. No one else at the overlook. Looked like a beautiful walk to take but was on a jeep tour.

Can't miss it, the rim of this crater gives excellent views, and there is a very nice hiking trail that goes down to the lake shore and beach. Absolutely breathtaking and pristine.

We hiked up to Lagoa do Fogo all the way from Agua de Alto. The routes total distance was 10 miles with 2500ft of cumulative elevation gain. Starting from the official trailhead would save about 700 ft of climbing and several miles of walking on roads. The trail proper starts up a steep dirt road for about 1.5 miles before leveling out along the canal. This portion as well as the remainder of the hike is quite enjoyable. This was one of the best hikes we did on the island but was rather strenuous as times.

You know how you gaze into one of those scenic photos on a nature calendar, imagining what it would be like to stroll along that grassy knoll alongside the peaceful lake? Welcome to Lagoa do Fogo - one of Sao Miguel's calendar moments. Take some time here, enjoy the breathtaking vistas and lush hillsides that make this attraction one of the island's best.

The Lagoa do Fogo is one of the most beautiful spots on the island. Although it is usually quite foggy, it is well worth waiting until the fog clears out and hike down to the river front - it's a 15-20 minute hike down from the viewpoint, not too complicated as there are steps to help with the climb. Once you reach the lake, the best way around is by going left and just keep walking surrounded by nature in a very relaxing atmosphere. At some point, you will also see a smaller lake on the left. There are quite a few birds around the lake, and they can be a bit aggressive if they think you are attacking their baby birds - so just be careful not to disturb them. I would definitely recommend it as one of the best spots in Sao Miguel.

This lake could easily become a favorite place of mine if I lived on the island. Pretty trails going down, swim able, cliffs, trees.... Yup, this place has it all

The geology of this area is fascinating. The lake was beautiful although we did lots of timetable juggling to see it when the fog or cloud had lifted. We saw this with a tour guide and I am glad because we would never know enough about the local weather to judge the best time. Also we were happy not to be driving on the winding mountain roads. Our guide said "remember it is winter!" We Canadians just laughed.
