Hiking
The viewpoint at Arco de São Jorge on Madeira offers a breathtaking panorama: The village itself clings to steep cliffs, and the surrounding hills provide sweeping views across the north coast – where the green of the land meets the blue of the Atlantic. From the viewpoint, the coastline appears particularly dramatic, while green forests rise above the valley, making the small village look like a dreamy postcard scene.
