Fogo National Park

Tourist attraction National park

👍👍 Es lohnt sich wirklich, den Fogo Nationalpark mit der Caldera, dem Rand der Caldera und vielleicht auch dem Pico do Fogo zu besuchen. Von São Filipe gibt es Sammel-Taxis und natürlich auch geführte Touren zur Caldera. Dort oben kann man viel über Vulkanismus lernen, geführte Wanderungen unternehmen.... People often mention guide, volcano, Fogo, vulc, experience, Caldeiras, nature, Beautiful,

    Es lohnt sich wirklich, den Fogo Nationalpark mit der Caldera, dem Rand der Caldera und vielleicht auch dem Pico do Fogo zu besuchen. Von São Filipe gibt es Sammel-Taxis und natürlich auch geführte Touren zur Caldera. Dort oben kann man viel über Vulkanismus lernen, geführte Wanderungen unternehmen. In und um die Caldera wird auch Wein angebaut, den man unbedingt kosten sollte. Überhaupt wachsen in dieser scheinbar lebensfeindlichen Umgebung sehr viele Nutzpflanzen, denn die vulkanische Asche ist sehr fruchtbar.

    Ein Naturbeispiel, wie es sein kann schön und doch schrecklich. Die Bewohner sprechen wohl eher von Unheil. Absolut lohnendes Ziel. Vulkan besteigen ist auch schön.

    A must if you visit Cabo Verde and are interested in nature and hiking. The ideal place to stay is Casa Marisa where they offer already any tour.

    Best experience of my life thus far. PLEASE be respectful and pay for a guide to take you. Don't be an ignorant tourist. My guide was exceptional, knowledgeable, funny. A local from the village below, she spoke exceptional English and helped make the experience as amazing as it was. THANK YOU, FOGO!!

    Don't book the volcano hike experience through Trip Advisor. There are many local guides there that will book you the experience when you are there already. It is cheaper this way.

    Beautiful landscape caused by a long history or vulcanic activity. Inside the crater is a village where one can see the impact of the last eruption (2014), talk to the locals and enjoy the many delicacies of Fogo. Make sure to stop by Casa Marisa for lunch or dinner!

    (Translated by Google) A place that is hard to describe so much it's amazing especially since the last eruption of 2014 that buried many houses cut off the main road destroyed vegetation and locals who do not want to leave their caldera life took over new construction of vines .... the big and small pico loop is superb and the explanations of a guide to understand the history necessary to see (Original) Un endroit qu il est difficile de décrire tellement c est étonnant surtout depuis la dernière éruption de 2014 qui a enseveli de nombreuses maisons coupé la route principale détruit la végétation et les habitants qui ne veulent pas quitter leur caldera la vie a repris de nouvelles constructions des vignes....la boucle grand et petit pico est superbe et les explications d un guide pour comprendre l historique nécessaires à voir

    (Translated by Google) Recommended! Nice walk to the top with a nice view. Running down through the damp stones is also very nice. (Original) Aanrader! Leuke wandeling naar de top met een mooi uitzicht. Naar beneden rennen door de klamme steentjes is ook erg leuk.

    Trekking inoblidable pel vessant del volcà. Una mica exigent doncs caminar trepitjant pedretes volcàniques no és gens fàcil. Paisatge lunar. Durant el trek es poden trobar cràters de velles erupcions. Des del segle XV al volcà de Fogo se li han registrat 28 erupcions, l'última el 2014 quan va sepultar bona part del llogaret de Portela.

    Local incrível por múltiplas razões. Trata-se da cratera de um vulcão activo cuja última erupção foi em 2014, onde existe uma aldeia e os seus habitantes vivem da agricultura e do turismo. Como estamos em altitude, as temperaturas são mais baixas e as culturas aqui praticadas não são tropicais mas mediterrânicas, introduzidas pelos portugueses aquando dos descobrimentos. A principal é a vinha mas existem pomares de macieiras, figueiras, romanzeiras e outras. A produção de vinho é de tal forma importante que existe uma cooperativa com adega própria. A paisagem vulcânica associada a esta actividade humana é inigualável, um lugar único no mundo que merece o maior destaque internacional.

    Der Besuch der Insel Fogo war ein Abenteuer. Der Aufstieg ist für Untrainierte recht anstrengend. Aber wir haben es geschafft. Die Inselbewohner sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Es hat sich gelohnt.

  • 5/5 Jorge S. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Awesome place. Spectacular scenery even more if you choose to climb the volcano. From there you will have an overview of the entire caldera as well as the size of the various eruptions 1951-1995 and 2014. Reconstruction of the housing in progress as well as the road. Hire a guide. (Original) Local incrível. Paisagem espectacular ainda mais se optar por subir ao vulcão. Daí terá uma visão sobre a totalidade da caldeira bem como a dimensão das várias erupções 1951-1995 e 2014. Reconstrução das habitações em curso bem como a estrada. Contrate um guia.

    (Translated by Google) The Fogo volcano and Cha das Caldeiras are magical places. It seems to be in another world, an extra-terrestrial world. The peace that reigns is absolute, it is very good. I suggest exploring the area with your own vehicle, but also going up with an aluguer, staying overnight and going back down the next day must be a unique experience. Avoid rather organized day tours that leave little free time available. (Original) Il vulcano di Fogo e Cha das Caldeiras sono luoghi magici. Sembra di essere in un altro mondo, un mondo extra terrestre. La pace che regna è assoluta, si sta molto bene. Suggerisco di esplorare la zona con un mezzo proprio, ma anche andare su con un aluguer, pernottare lì e tornare giù il giorno dopo deve essere un'esperienza unica. Evitate piuttosto i tour organizzati in giornata che lasciano poco tempo Libero a disposizione.

    (Translated by Google) It is a symbol of strength and determination. Seeing the rebuilding of a village and resurgence of the devastated plantations in 2014 by volcanic lavas is a learning about resilience. Moreover, fortunately, we are not everywhere that we have the privilege of enjoying the beauty of a volcanoes and climbing it. Even volcanic lavas, synonymous with destruction, form beautiful sculptures. I was with my baby of 2.5 years, so we climbed the small peak. The tour lasted 3 hours round trip with difficult stretches. If it is the Island of Fire do not stop climbing, at least the small volcano. (Original) É um símbolo da força e determinação. Ver a reconstrução de um vilarejo e ressurgimento das plantações devastados, em 2014, pelas lavas vulcânicas é um aprendizado sobre resiliência. Além disso, felizmente, não são em todos lugares que temos o privilégio de apreciar a beleza de um vulcões e escalá-lo. Mesmo as lavas vulcânicas, sinônimo de destruição, formam esculturas belíssimas. Estava com meu bebê de 2,5 anos, então escalamos o pico pequeno. O passeio durou 3 horas ida e volta com trechos difíceis. Se for a Ilha de Fogo não deixe de escalar, pelo menos o pequeno vulcão.

    (Translated by Google) An incredible place. The lava creaks underfoot in this lunar landscape. The reliefs surrounding the crater bring a tremendous perspective to the place. The villagers are very friendly. The ascent of the volcano is really worth it, the view from the summit is breathtaking. The descent in great stride in the ashes is simply magical ... (Original) Un endroit incroyable. La lave craque sous les pieds dans ce paysage lunaire. Les reliefs entourant le cratère apportent une formidable perspective à l endroit. Les villageois sont très sympathiques. L ascension du volcan vaut vraiment le coup, la vue du sommet est à couper le souffle. La descente en grande foulée dans les cendres est tout simplement magique...

    A must if you're in Fogo Island - even if you're not planning to scale the peak. It's worth just for the views alone. There is no gate or entrance fee, just a small post informing you that you are now in the Park.

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful place. The ascencion starts at 6am and it takes about 4 to 6 hours of walking between up and down. The view is splendid. A guide costs 6000 escudos for 2 and 2000 / person if you are more than 2. The climb is traced but I would say that the guide can be really good for the descent because dangerous! In other countries, the rise will be I think forbidden. We are not sheltered by a rockslide or a pebble. But doing it is just amazing. I recommend this place. I stayed at José's house in Cha das Caldeiras. Watching via booking is really not bad. (Original) Endroit magnifique. L'ascencion commence à 6h du matin et il faut compter environ 4 à 6h de marche entre monter et descendre. La vue est splendide. Un guide coute 6000 escudos pour 2 et 2000/personne si vous êtes plus de 2. La montée est tracée mais je dirait que le guide peut être vraiment bien pour la descente car dangereux ! Dans d'autre pays, la montée serai je pense interdite. On est pas à l abris d un éboulement de pierre ou d un cailloux. Mais le fait de le faire est juste incroyable. Je recommande ce lieux. J'ai séjourner chez José à Cha das Caldeiras. Regarder via booking c est vraiment pas mal.
