The Pico Cão Grande (Portuguese for "Great Dog Peak") is a landmark needle-shaped volcanic plug peak in São Tomé and Príncipe, in the Caué District of São Tomé Island in Parque Natural Obô de São Tomé. Its summit is 663 m (2,175 ft) above sea level,[1] and it rises about 370 m (1,210 ft) over the surrounding terrain.[2] The volcanic plug was formed by magma solidifying in the vent of an active volcano.[2] The nearest village is Vila Clotilde, 3 km to the east. The district seat São João dos Angolares is 9 km to the east.
The volcanic plug is quite a recent phenomenon, having formed as part of the Cameroon line of volcanoes roughly three and a half million years ago in the Pliocene. Its composition is mainly phonolite (also called clinkstone in vernacular English).[3]
The moss growing on the rocks due to high moisture content, and the presence of snakes, make climbing here very difficult.[4]
The first attempt to climb Pico Cão Grande was in 1975 by a Portuguese team of climbers, and the first successful climb was completed by a Japanese group of climbers in Feb 1991. Their names are Yosuke Takahashi, Kenichi Moriyama, Naotoshi Agata.[5]
In June 2016, Gareth Leah, from England, and Sergio Almada, from Mexico, established a new bolt-protected route on the peak. The pair spent four weeks on the peak producing a route which they named Nubivagant ("ascent into the clouds"). The route is 15 pitches (455 metres) in length and is graded F8b (5.13d). They climbed all but three pitches clean. The route is both extremely long and technically very demanding, and their climb was plagued with difficulties, including snakebites and blown battery chargers. The most difficult portions of the climb are in the first 100 meters, after which the difficulty drops considerably.[2]
In July 2018, the Spanish brothers Iker and Eneko Pou completed a multi-day team redpoint ascent of a new route. They established the route ground up and without use of aid or removable bolts. The route is called Leve Leve and graded F8b+ (5.14a). They were also able to make the first all-free ascent of Nubivagant in team redpoint style over two days. This was followed two weeks later by another all-free ascent by a team of Americans, Sam Daulton and Remy Franklin.[6]

São Tomé and Príncipe is a true hidden gem in Africa and a paradise island like no other. This two-island nation is located in West Africa and is a former Portuguese colony and the second smallest country in Africa. São Tomé and Príncipe is one of those travel destinations not many people have even heard of so it’s a perfect choice for someone who wants to get off the beaten path but still prefers a laidback and easy destination.
Before visiting São Tomé and Príncipe, I was expecting it to be a little bit similar to Comoros, another small less-known island nation in Africa, but I couldn’t be more wrong. São Tomé and Príncipe has a completely different vibe and I was pleasantly surprised to find out how safe, organized and lush green the country is. Unlike Comoros, São Tomé and Príncipe is more tourist-friendly and has more hotel options and even some tour companies.
Traveling around the country, I was wondering how is it possible that not more people know about this place. I was just amazed at how beautiful it was and how friendly and warm the local people were. This a dream destination for nature lovers!

There are three weekly flights with the Portuguese airline TAP from Lisbon to São Tomé on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. It’s a direct flight, although with a quick stop in Accra. TAAG Angola Airlines flies to São Tomé from Luanda, Angola, on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays.
In São Tomé, there are some minibuses you can take but these are not the most efficient for sightseeing. Instead, I would recommend renting a car, using transportation options your hotel offers or taking a tour. Yellow taxis are also available to take you around but these might not be the most convenient for day trips, especially if you would like to explore some remote areas where a 4X4 car is recommended. The station for taxis and buses is located next to the market area in the capital city.
The islands of São Tomé and Príncipe were uninhabited before they were discovered by Portuguese and they then started a settlement there in 1493. The cultivation of sugar started and slaves were imported from the African mainland. Later on, in the early 19th century, coffee and cocoa were also introduced and soon plantations, so-called roças, that were owned by Portuguese landlords were everywhere in the country.
