This video is within a playlist of different hikes I did in the Azores in 2021 (in case you want to see trails in other islands from the Azores)

Very nice.

Stunningly beautiful! Bucket list! How did you find those cute cottages (in the middle of nowhere) to spend the night?

[@deana.blackburn4720]

Did you stay in the huts? Alone? With people? What were they like? Bathing? Sleep quality?

[@charliedays5792]

We stayed in 4 huts and we only shared one hut during one night. The huts are simple, but with everything you need. Hot water heated by solar panels.

Hi, at what time of the year did you the trail?

[@carolyncoe131]

Beauty ...Is there a hiking trail map that you followed and did you stay along the trail in guest houses? Did they show on the maps?

[@charliedays5792]

Thanks Carolyn. Yes, we stayed in guest houses. There are not many so be sure to book in advance. You may find the map here: trails.visitazores.com/pt-pt/grandes-rotas-acores/grande-rota-santa-maria

[@carolyncoe131]

@@charliedays5792 Thanks Thats a great site.. Now just to book the flights.. Thanks

[@carolyncoe131]

Can I ask where you filled up you water the first day before the hike? And did you ever run out during the hike?

[@charliedays5792]

You will find restaurants and bars at the start/end or along the path, but be sure to refill everytime you cross a village. 🙂
