Under the maternal gaze of the highest mountain in Portugal, Pico, lies the fajã das lajes, seat of the island's first municipality. In Lajes, the tradition and culture of a people combine with leisure and head to the immense sea for whale watching.

Nature is intact, idyllic landscapes and extraordinary trails, where you can feel the soft scent of leaves dewed by the morning frost.

Lajes is adventure,
discovery,
where those who have already been here want to return
and those who have never been here want to know a lot about it.
