Overview

The dwarf donkey is an indigenous breed from the Island of Graciosa, recognized for its cultural and historical value.

In the past, these donkeys were essential for agriculture and transportation, helping locals plow fields and carry loads, making them crucial in the daily life of the community.

Over time, the use of dwarf donkeys diminished, leading to their threat of extinction. The Dwarf Donkey Route was created to preserve this breed and raise awareness about the importance of biodiversity on the island. This trail not only celebrates local identity but also provides visitors with an authentic experience, allowing them to get up close to these animals and learn about their history and role in Azorean culture.

Thus, the Dwarf Donkey Route is not just a walk in nature but a journey through time, where culture, history, and nature intertwine, offering a rich and educational experience for all who traverse it.
