Hike Serra Malagueta to Principal Valley From Tarrafal
Descent to the Serra Malagueta dam
Beautiful hike with quite a bit of negative elevation and a little slippery but still accessible. Stunning landscapes.

From Praia, Baobab Mysterious Tree, Green Valley & Old City Hike
Beautiful hike in the GreenValley with the highlight of Cape Verde's oldest BaoBab tree
We were in mid-March individually for a week on Santiago and booked some tours with Cape Verde tours. We have only made positive experiences with the organizer. Punctual and reliable pick-up and execution of the hike. Competent tour guide named Gualter, good subject as well as general knowledge of the history of the World Heritage Site Cidade Velha in English, friendly and safe group tour. The entry into the Canyon Gorge or the dried-out riverbed is slightly sloping, but can be managed with good footwear and normal condition as well as surefootedness. Walking sticks for better grip are recommended. Highlight is the oldest BaoBab tree in Cape Verde, which is in the middle of the hike. We were told a lot about the Green Valley and the countryside. With a bit of luck you can see a monkey in the Ribeira (green seacats) who are looking for food. The target, of course, is the hist. Place Cidade Velha with Banana Street and the sights. We wish the Guide Gualter with Cape Verde tours continued success.
