Cliffside Trail in Parque Natural da Madeira

Highlight • Trail

The path through the cliffs is not secured and is largely in its original condition. This makes it quite slippery on the stones and clay soil in wet weather.

Highlight • Trail

Hiking poles are a great help here to protect your knees. Often there are no steps and it can get slippery.
