The Quimera's GPS

Account of a trekking trip through the Dolomites, crossing Italy and Austria, amid alpine landscapes and mountain refuges. A 76 km hike, with challenging stages, imposing nature, moments of conviviality and the history of the First World War.

Visiting Flores and Corvo is like stepping into one of the most authentic corners of the Atlantic. On Flores Island, nature shows off all its power — impressive waterfalls, hidden lagoons, fajãs shaped by time. On Corvo, the geographical smallness contrasts with the grandeur of its identity: a resilient community, a dormant volcano transformed into a lagoon, and a pace of life marked by simplicity and human closeness.
