“Fajãs” are the elements that give the singularity and the peculiar aspect of São Jorge Island shorelines. They are small pieces of flat land stuck between the mountains and the sea. They result from the collapse of material that accumulates on the foothills of the shoreline or by the cooling of lava that reaches the water.
Each one of these “Fajãs” is unique, and this trail is prepared to contemplate and to allow the contact with all of their different aspects.
