Traveling around the world i never came across a worse organisation then this. We waited over one hour for the bus, then everyone who came after us were first in the bus. On top the driver said to wa… Full review by Samy K

This is another of the islands truly stunning volcano lakes which is best visited when the clouds are not shrouding the top of the hills, and this they do often. Although the ‘lake of fire’ got its n… Full review by Steve_of_N21

The views are INCREDIBLE. Jaw dropping. At first we were worried about the shuttle bus you need to take to get up to the best views but those worries are no longer valid. The bus runs every half h… Full review by amypZ83YR
Was looking to take road EN5-2A down from Centro de Interpretação Ambiental da Caldeira Velha, are there viewpoints that I can see the lake from a viewpoint if I pull my car over? Thanks.

Its been some 9 months ago i went but i believe that is the route we took, and there were quite a few spots set up for viewing, including near the top of the road climb where you can see both sides of the island at the same time, as well as the lake. Even when the parking area is full, cars just park on the road off to one side. A good sunny day provides great opportunity for fantastic views and memorable photographs!

I don't believe there is public transport to the mountain. We rented a vehicle and drove to the top(rim) and then hiked down. I did notice several couples coming from the bottom and hiking up as we were going down. There are tour buses that go up but I didn't actually see any during the time we were there.
Hi - would this be a suitable day out for a family including one with limited mobility? Are the stairs/ walkways steep, how uneven is the ground for walking on and is the paths a decent width? thanks

There is a paved road going to the top of the hill overlooking the lake, but I really would not see it as a hiking area. You would want to take a vehicle to the top. Once there, you will find plenty of easy places to walk near the road. However, the "money" view overlooking the crater requires a short walk on a narrow, uneven, and rocky path. I would not recommend that for someone with limited mobility. At the level of the lake, there is a scenic overlook area. There is a narrow path down to the beach. I did not take it, but it looked reasonably smooth and not overly steep for those with good mobility in relatively decent shape. However, it is a long path, it does go downhill, and it is not wide, so I would not recommend it for someone with limited mobility. Mostly, you can get the best views from either a vehicle window or by stepping onto the pavement at the scenic overlooks. This lake is one of the most beautiful parts of the island, if not the most beautiful, and should not be missed.
