Trails of Nature – Adventures in the Azores

Trails of Nature – Adventures in the Azores

São Miguel Island, often referred to as "The Green Island", is the largest and most populous island of the Azores.  Abundant in verdant beauty, it has long captured the attention of locals and visitors alike; and now you too can discover its natural charms with Trails of Nature.
 
Operated by Pedro Rodrigues, Trails of Nature (‘Trilhos da Natureza’) was born out of a love for the landscapes of São Miguel and, beyond the island, the Azores.  Pedro realised that these stunning panoramas lent themselves perfectly to land and sea-based adventures and in 1999, Trails of Nature was founded.  At the heart of the company’s operations is an innovative belief; the best way to experience the island is to venture to its heart – and by using 4x4 vehicles, visitors could venture to the hidden, untouched parts of the island that truly resound in natural beauty.  The first company to offer tours of this kind, Trails of Nature now offer a range of activities for visitors to fully become one with this unique scenery.
