マデイラの湖・トップ14

Easily accessible, directly opposite the harbor where the cruise ships dock and the CR7 Museum is located, a steep staircase leads up to the park. Here, under shady trees and by the lake, there are many benches for resting.

Lagoa do Vento is an idyllic mountain lake nestled at the foot of a high cliff face and fed by a long, delicate waterfall. Surrounded by rocks, ferns, and dense laurel forest, the place exudes an almost magical tranquility. A beautiful destination in the Rabaçal area, it impressively showcases the wild and unspoiled side of Madeira.

The Levada Reservoir (1970) is a small water basin used to irrigate and regulate the surrounding levadas. Quietly nestled in the landscape, the clear water often reflects the green of the forest. An unassuming but important part of Madeira's traditional irrigation system – ideal for a short stop along the way.

The Viento Lagoon is a small, sheltered body of water nestled in the vast landscape of Madeira. Surrounded by rolling hills, heather, and sometimes dense vegetation, it offers a tranquil, almost secluded spot. An atmospheric stop, perfect for pausing briefly and enjoying the natural ambiance of the plateau.

Very beautiful place in a fantastic landscape

Lagoa do Vento is a picturesque mountain lake located at the end of the PR 6.3 – Vereda da Lagoa do Vento hiking trail. This path leads hikers through a breathtaking landscape of laurel forest and raised bog vegetation down to an impressive waterfall that cascades over 80 meters into a clear, turquoise pool.

With a bit of luck you can observe the endemic Madeira chaffinch here.
