Hiking

The first wicker carriages, the "Carros de Cesto", were introduced in the mid-19th century as a fast means of transport for the inhabitants of Montes, making them the first public transport on Madeira. Only the British, who called the basket sled "toboggan", made the fun ride at the end of the 19th century an attraction for tourists.
