A very nice hiking trail leads from the Ribeiro Frio parking lot to the Balcões, along a small stream, through a small gorge.

A levada hike 'in miniature', which offers everything: Levada, forest, Madeira fishing, Madeira-Bommelmützen ... in the end you will be rewarded with a great view of the Central Mountains and the Atlantic Ocean.
