Choosing the Best Car to Explore Pico Island

Pico features unique driving conditions. While the main regional road encircling the island is smooth, accessing the famous UNESCO-protected vineyards (Criação Velha) or driving up to the Pico Mountain trail head involves rugged, volcanic gravel tracks and steep ascents.

Our Recommendation: For travellers wanting to explore off the beaten path or hike the mountain, opting for a car with slightly higher ground clearance or a robust manual transmission gives you total peace of mind on unpaved roads.
