The idyllic landscape of Bindá was during colonial times the headquarter of one of the most remote plantations where the Portuguese dared to settle.
The trail to Roça Bindá, take you to the actual end of the road, where the last traces of civilization can be found before the OBO cuts the access in the west side of São Tomé island. The hike is itself quite easy and was possible to drive it until very recently. Now several trees and landslides prevent the access for the vehicles. Go and explore the ruins and have a chat with the last inhabitants of the roça.
