What to expect

The adventure takes place in Ribeira das Coelhas, in the parish of Salga, approximately 50 minutes by car from the city of Ponta Delgada.

Upon arrival at the site, we will distribute the necessary equipment and then begin a 15-minute hike to the entrance of the stream, where the first safety briefing will be conducted.

Throughout the route, you will have the opportunity to perform optional jumps ranging from 2 to 6 meters in height, as well as rappels varying between 4 and 20 meters. Before each rappel, our guides will provide a practical demonstration to ensure everyone feels prepared and confident for the experience.

The adventure ends with a 20-minute ascent back to the starting point, offering an unforgettable journey through the stunning nature of São Miguel.
