    The only climb on the Rosmarin-Levada, a steep staircase lets us go against the current. A strange feeling of climbing up a staircase while the Levada water rushes towards you.

      It seems to me that this is the island's most photographed waterfall. But always nice to look at.

        Here the water overcomes a level difference of about 5 m... Very photogenic, as the steps are right next to it and therefore the gradient is not very great.
