Trekking in Cape Verde

Cape Verde is a set of small pearls in the Atlantic. And if, on the one hand, we have flat islands whose main attraction is their wonderful beaches, we also have other islands whose dazzle comes from their slopes and mountainous areas.

Brava falls primarily into the latter group with its highest point passing 1,000 meters.

Dream Views when Trekking on Brava Island

Its rugged terrain, with towns and villages, like Nova Sintra, perfectly framed in the landscape, delight visitors. Houses are found on mountain slopes, with zigzag paths, often on dirt, to get there.

With the sea on the horizon, due to the small size of the island one feels, all the time, the connection with nature is constant.

Friendly people, unique deserted locations

On the island it is possible to find deserted houses along the various trekking routes on Brava Island. For example, between Nova Sintra and Fajã de Água you can find breathtaking views as you go down to the coast. Small villages have unique details, such as Cova Rodela, with its huge Dragoeiro.
