Near Serra Devassa, there is the Muro das Nove Janelas, an aqueduct considered a heritage site of historical value.
This is a mountain with an altitude of 845 meters. The breathtaking view is very similar to u201cMiradouro da Boca do Infernou201d but from a higher perspective (accessible with the quads) and even more magnificent due to its altitude. From here you can see Lagoa Rasa, Lagoa de Santiago, Lagoa Verde, Lagoa Azul and a view to the whole crater of Sete Cidades dormant volcano. If weather is good, this one of the high lights of the tour, where we can see almost the whole island from the top.
This viewpoint allows you to contemplate the beauty of Lagoa das Sete Cidades and all its surroundings, and also allows you to admire part of the north coast of the island of Su00e3o Miguel.
Located at an altitude of 540 meters, this viewpoint offers a unique and panoramic view over Sete Cidades crater. Depending on weather and dirt roads conditions we can get to see the same view from a diferent perspective u201cMiradouro das Cumeeirasu201d, where we can have an amazing view to the green and blue lake but from the opposite side of the Crater.
Here you can expect to make some dirt paths that surround the Blue Lagoon in Sete Cidades with incredible views over the lakes.
