Cabo Girão is a cliff in the south of Madeira, near the village of Câmara de Lobos. Its height is 560 to 589 m, making it one of the highest cliffs in the European Union.
Below the cliff and at the bottom of the slope there are terraced fields.
The fields at the foot of the cliff were formerly accessible only by boat, since August 2003, there is a cable car on the slope, which was originally created to facilitate the fieldwork for the farmers.

Pre-programmed muscle soreness.
It's worth turning around during the breaks and enjoying the view.

When I, coming from above, shortly before the Levada do Facho, warned a couple that there were still around 250 steps to come, the smiling answer was: from CdL it's 3000. I didn't count!
