    Tips

    At the third tunnel in Madeira Natural Park, you'll be greeted by cool spray and lush greenery right next to a rushing waterfall. The water cascades in several stages over mossy rocks, its steady roar accompanying you. This is the perfect spot for a short break to take in the contrasts between the dark tunnel, the bright daylight, and the power of the water.

      Shortly before the third tunnel, a waterfall appears to fall from the sky. It is well over 100 meters high and cascades down into the Levada.
