A hike amongst coffee plantations and through the mid-altitude secondary forest, along the perimeter of the Obô S. Tomé Natural Park. A walk enhanced by various singing birds, by rivers burbling in the forest and by the pure, fresh air generously provided by the lush vegetation.
Visit Monte Café, the largest coffee production centre on the island, stopping at historic sites such as the old warehouse where coffee used to be sorted and selected and which today houses the Coffee Museum. Walking along the old trails connecting the coffee plantations, we come to Bemposta and we continue on the path along the perimeter of the Natural Park Obô de S. Tomé up to the annex of Chamiço where you can admire the view over the plains of the city of S. Tomé. Return to your hotel by car.
