Hiking

Arrive early. Usually very crowded. It takes a while until everyone has taken their photos.

Hiking

This levada trail leads you along a narrow irrigation channel through the typical Madeiran landscape. Accompanied by the gentle babbling of the water, you hike through lush greenery, past ferns and mosses, with occasional glimpses of the surrounding valleys. A peaceful and pleasant section that perfectly reflects the special atmosphere of the levada trails.
