Hiking

Spectacular views of the large mountains of the Massif Central of Madeira. The viewing platform is located more than 100 meters above the valley floor, where the mass of water, which is constantly flowing from the mountains, drives a power plant.

Hiking

Very relaxed "hike"! Make sure to do it early in the morning. On the one hand, the whole village is not yet parked with tourist buses, on the other hand, the view is then better!

Hiking

Very many chaffinches on this tour. (Probably already know that there is something to eat here)
