Monday Arrival - Pick up from the airport with our transfer service
Wednesday Walk
Ribeiro Frio / Lamaceiros / Portela
This is perhaps the most well known levada in Madeira. As we walk along this footpath you will marvel at the display of light and shade filtering through the laurel trees. The trout swimming in the levada alongside the path, dash for cover, as they perceive our approach. As we near Lamaceiros, the view of Porto da Cruz and the Eagle Rock far below are just out of this world. A walk that must not be missed.
Walking time: 4.5 hours
Distance: 12 Km
Friday Walk
Queimadas / Caldeirão Verde / Santana
Starting at the Queimadas guesthouse and walking along the levada of Caldeirão Verde, we make our way westwards through an emerald green paradise. Soon after the start we see the most spectacular view of the villages far below. A waterfall comes into view and soon after passing it, we go through some short tunnels and after a while we arrive at Caldeirão Verde´s majestic waterfall. Following a short rest, during which we have our picnic, we begin the return journey and go down to the village of Santana, passing through green pastures and farmlands. A highly recommended walk to some of the most remote parts of the island.
Walking time: 4.5 hours
Distance: 13 Km
