Wildlife
History
Terceira’s settlements reflect maritime and military history; Angra do Heroísmo served as a key Atlantic port and earned UNESCO recognition for its historic center.
Conservation
Stick to marked paths inside lava tubes and fragile pastureland; the island’s ecosystems recover slowly from trampling, so minimize off-trail travel and pack out waste.

Although lunch can be added, bring water and light snacks for stretches between stops and on optional hikes.

Daypack with rain cover
