    A very beautiful place with some small waterfalls that thunder into the stream that flows down to the valley.

      The Levada da Achada Grande is fed by the Riberia dos Moinhos, which works its way through a rocky bed to Boaventura.
      The paths along the Riberia dos Moinhos are difficult, as is the direct ascent to the Levada tunnel.
      On the other hand, the way from Tanque is easy (can also be reached by bus). From there you follow the Levada through the tunnel and can easily reach the Madre.
