Despite the warnings and no entry signs at the access points of some of the closed pedestrian routes, tourists are choosing to ignore them and access the trails.
This morning was no different, as several visitors decided to ignore the taped off entrances and walk along the path that connects Pico do Areeiro and Pico Ruivo. It was here, last week, that a 25-year-old tourist was hit on the head by a falling stone, as she believed that danger signs and warnings did not apply to her!
