We watched the sunrise at Pico do Arieiro. We arrived at 7:30 and there were a lot of people already. The sunrise was at around 8 am. After that we did hiking to Pico Ruivo. The board said it would take 3 to 3 and a half hours, but it took us around 2 and a half hours. We did not continue to Achada Do Teixeira, which needs another hour, because we came with rented car and we needed to go back to Pico do Arieiro to pick up our car. We found out later most people arranged a pick up at Achada Do Teixeira, so they did not need to go back to Pico do Arieiro. Although it was not an easy hike, the view was amazing. Most people wear proper hiking clothes and shoes and bring food and water. There is a small cafe close to the top of Pico Ruivo.
