少走这条路?(The road less taken?)
皮科山海拔近2440米,是亚速尔群岛皮科岛上的最高点。亚速尔岛是大西洋上的一个群岛,被称为葡萄牙的自治区。这座层状火山由玄武岩熔岩组成,自1720年12月以来一直处于休眠状态。然而,1562年皮科火山爆发持续了两年多。皮科山是亚速尔群岛最著名的景点之一,是一个受欢迎的徒步旅行目的地,它允许坚定的游客到达山顶。山顶可以欣赏到皮科岛和周围许多其他岛屿的壮丽景色,这是一次绝对值得的艰难攀登。

At almost 2,440 metres above sea level, Mount Pico is the highest point on Pico Island in the Azores, a collection of islands in the Atlantic Ocean known as an autonomous region of Portugal. This stratovolcano made of basaltic lava that has been lying dormant since December 1720. However, a 1562 eruption of Mount Pico lasted for more than two years. One of the most prominent sites in the Azores, Mount Pico is a popular hiking destination that allows determined visitors to reach the summit. The apex offers stunning views of Pico Island and many other islands around it, making a difficult climb that is absolutely worth it.
