This scenic drive begins from Porto Novo, up the Rua de Corda, an old road built in the previous centuries by slaves. Cutting north through some of the island’s most beautiful valleys, the road snakes along steep slopes and rises quickly towards the volcanic ridges of the island.


One of the primary viewpoints along this route is the rim of the Cova crater.
The Cova crater is a part of a long extinct volcano, and is covered in lush vegetation.


The most stunning point, however, was the lookout from the Delgadinho mountain ridge.
Here, the old, cobblestone road, cuts into the peak, splitting it in two.  
The cliffs fall sharply on either side of the ridge, hundreds of meters above the valley flood.  
The view is stunning on both sides.
