Feel like a real explorer and discover Algar do Carvão, a volcanic vent classified as a Natural Monument and located inside the Guilherme Moniz caldera, at a height of 640m. This volcano is one of the few volcanoes in the world that you can visit it. Once inside, you can observe the cave walls formed from dark black lava, the domes created by the attempts to exit the lava, as well as some basaltic "covers" that still resist clinging to the primitive rock. Due to the action of water on the interior ceilings of this remarkable empty volcanic chimney, it is possible to see ferrous and siliceous deposits.
