Lush Azorean waterfall and nearby thermal ruins offer contrasting subjects: the multi-tiered Cascata da Riberrã do Limbo set in fern-carpeted ravine, and the weathered Ruínas das Termas da Ladeira da Velha with textured stone and steam remnants. Best light is golden hour or soft overcast for saturated greens; late spring–early autumn gives fuller flows. Trail is short but slippery—wear waterproof shoes. Limited roadside parking; no entry fee but respect private property and fragile ruins.
