The Lomba da Fazenda circuit covers 6 kilometres between the village centre, Ribeira do Guilherme valley and the Nordeste coast. From the church and garden, it descends towards the campsite and stream, where former watermills, a fountain and stone paths recall the use of flowing water. The crossing enters a more enclosed landscape before the trail begins gaining height again.
A connection approaches Nordeste town, but the main circuit continues towards Boca da Ribeira. The coast appears among cliffs, agricultural ground and recreation areas, including an old harbour that reflects a maritime connection predating modern access. At Pelado Endemic Park, Azorean plants are displayed in a space dedicated to local flora, linking the spontaneous vegetation of the slope with deliberate conservation and interpretation.
The return passes the Morgada area, wash tanks and paths leading back into the settlement. In about two and a half hours, this medium circuit brings together fresh water, coast, agriculture and community facilities. Its variety does not require great distance; it comes from rapid changes among stream, cliff, park and village. Although the loop finishes near its start, it demands care at water crossings and on segments shared with local traffic.
