This is where you come in at the beginning of the hike. The levada is fed with water a second time. At the beginning of the levada, it is supplied with water at the "Madre da Levada in Ribeira do Inferno".

To be admired right at the beginning of the levada walk.

Hiking

On the left side, next to the levada steps, a path leads up. Once you reach the top, you won't be able to admire the levada steps from above as you might have hoped, as there's a fence around them. So it's not worth the walk.
