Fanal Forest

This idyllic mountain forest is one of the last laurel forests in the world and a UNESCO heritage site. With a great layer of fog, this place is even more mystical!

Fanal Forest

Be sure to bring adequate clothing, a.k.a. a rain jacket! Fanal is located in the mountains and often has rainy weather. If you are lucky, there is a good layer of fog to make the experience even more mystical! You can also go for a hike in the forest, but because of the rain, we decided to turn back.
