It's better to take the lower route straight away. The accessible path is partly only 30 cm wide and has to be climbed while bending over, which is rather stupid with a backpack. Plus water and stone wall on the left. It gets narrower towards the middle.

Here you have to get off the Levada and go around it because the wall becomes too narrow and the risk of falling is too great.

Trails are generally good, some bad sections where you have to be careful.
