    Mountaineering

    When you see the parking lot, you have completed the approximately 8 km and around 1000 meters of altitude (ascent and descent) from Pico do Areeiro over Pico Ruivo and have experienced what is probably the most beautiful hike on Madera.

    A good starting point for hikes in the mountains.

    From here you have a good view of the Pico do Areeiro parking lot – ideal for orientation before or after your hike. You can see exactly where the trails start and get a sense of how busy it is. It's the perfect spot to take a short break before heading back to the car or onto the trail.
