Walking Holiday B

Walking in the Northeast

Hike in the charming and always green northeast on some of the most beautiful levada trails, but also along magnificent coastal paths. The highlight of the Madeira hiking trip is surely the ascent of the 1862 m high Pico Ruivos, the red summit. From here you have a fantastic panoramic view of the entire island!

4. Day
From the Levada da Serra at a height of approx. 600 m hike through eucalyptus and laurel forests, with tree heath and may flowers. Beautiful picnic areas, tunnels, streams, a waterfall and great views bring a lot of variety. From Ribeiro Frio drive to Santana, the place with the typical thatched cottages.

Overnight in Santana

Pure nature! Drive to the Queimadas nature reserve and hike along the Levada do Caldeirao Verde (green cauldron). Through gorges and along many small waterfalls. The largest falls from about 70 m into a small mountain lake.

The decision is made by the weather! If the peaks are overcast, hike along the coast from Santana to Sao Jorge. For open hikers we recommend hiking from Achada do Teixeira to Pico Ruivo (1862 m) and further to Pico do Arieiro (4.5 hours) when the weather is open. Your summit ascent!

Overnight in Funchal
