Nice alternative on the way to the 25 Fontes, very close to nature. The levada was partially cut through the mountain. The overgrowing trees create a rustic atmosphere.

View into the green valleys

Highlight • Viewpoint

Mostly sunny in the morning hours, but around midday there is often fog due to the altitude above sea level.

Levada do Alecrim Water Slide

Highlight • Waterfall

The only climb on the Rosmarin-Levada, a steep staircase lets us go against the current. A strange feeling of climbing up a staircase while the Levada water rushes towards you.
