São Nicolau
is a particularly charming and diverse Cape Verde island for hikers, mountain bikers, sports enthusiasts and lovers of secluded beaches. The mountain landscapes are spectacular, the alpine trails and MTB trails less strenuous than on Santo Antão. The natural park Monte Gordo is the best managed in the country with an especially rich endemic flora and great hikes. Vila Ribeira Brava, the historical center of the intellectual Cabo Verde, with a cathedral and the former seminary, is a dreamy, authentically renovated gem, for hikers and historians.
