Azores: Rainbows And Fog In The Highlands Of Pico Island
Pico, the island, has the same name as its mountain. With 2531m, Pico Mountain is the highest mountain in Portugal and one of the biggest European volcanoes. The last eruption has been in 1720.

It looks like the mountain would wear a too small party hat. Despite this funny exterior, Pico has a diginfied and wise aura.Â
