Venture up to the Marconi Interpretation Station in Fogo to explore the Lion’s Den Hiking Trail.

This is considered a moderate – difficult hike. This loop trail is 4.2 km long and weaves through 4 resettled communities. Wild red foxes of all colours tend to frolic along the hills throughout the day. Set aside extra time to take photos and enjoy fresh Atlantic air as you approach the ocean.

During berry season, sweet blueberries are plentiful. There are also lots of pitcher plants in the bogs, an explosion of colours coming together.

There are also a few little extra paths that hikers can take to various lookout points. Highly recommend it for hikers!
