    This hike is completely different than the typical Madeira walks: barren landscape and no levada far and wide.
    It is an impressive tour with spectacular views and colors and a desert-like vegetation.

      A view to the left and right and you can see the south and north coast of the island.
      The narrow ridge is still easy to walk on and secured with ropes. However, you should still be good on foot and have proper footwear.

        The peninsula is very barren, as there is little rain here - so it might be worth visiting on a rainy day. Don't forget sun protection when the sun is hot.
