    Tips

    The Levada do Alecrim is one of the most idyllic levadas in the Madeira highlands: The narrow irrigation channel leads you along soft forest paths, through fragrant broom and heather bushes, and past small streams. Again and again, the view opens up to reveal the green slopes and the plateau surrounding Rabacal. The gentle babbling of the levada accompanies you constantly – the perfect backdrop for a relaxing, scenic hike.

      Quiet hiking trail that is not as busy as the main paved path from the parking lot to the Rabçal Nature Spot Café.

        Beautiful, quiet alternative route to the paved path that connects the car park and the Rabaçal Nature Spot Café.
