Beautiful road, like many on this beautiful island. It is not crowded here and the road is good. Once you have climbed above the city, there are several viewpoints over the coastline. But actually, you have beautiful views throughout the climb. Besides the green and rugged coast of Flores, you can clearly see the island of Corvo in the distance.

Mooie weg, zoals vele op dit schitterende eiland. Het is hier niet druk en de weg is goed. Zodra je boven de stad bent uitgeklommen zijn er verschillende uitzichtpunten over de kustlijn. Maar eigenlijk heb je tijdens de hele klim mooie vergezichten. Naast de groene en ruige kust van Flores zie je in de verte het eiland Corvo goed liggen.
