Terra Nostra Park in Furnas: Visit Guide
Terra Nostra is a botanical park with a thermal pool in Furnas. Book and check the official visitor information before travelling; the AzoresLand full-day Furnas route includes the park stop, but park admission is paid separately.
What is Terra Nostra Park?
Terra Nostra is a botanical garden in the centre of Furnas with a large thermal pool and smaller thermal-water areas. The garden is part of the Furnas landscape rather than a quick roadside stop, so the time inside should be planned with the rest of the day.
Use the official Terra Nostra ticketing page for current ticketing, access and opening information.
Garden visit or thermal bathing?
Decide whether you mainly want the botanical collection, the thermal pool or both. Bathing adds time for changing and affects what you carry during the day. The official ticket conditions and any scheduled access should be checked before arrival.
Is Terra Nostra included in the Furnas tour?
The Furnas Full-Day Tour With Lunch includes Terra Nostra in its eight-hour route. The park admission itself is not included and is paid separately.
The four-hour Furnas Half-Day Tour does not include Terra Nostra Park. It follows a different route through Furnas, viewpoints and Gorreana without lunch.
What to confirm
Confirm the park ticket, date, bathing plan, group needs and how much time the tour allows. Do not buy a separate timed activity that conflicts with pickup or lunch. Private groups should also remember that the FareHarbor full-day product excludes lunch.
