Laurisilva Rainforest Trail, Madeira Natural Park

Highlight • Trail

Unique Tree Formation in Madeira Natural Park

Highlight • Natural Monument

Important:
If it has rained a lot, the tunnels are flooded and waterfalls can block the way. That means, in any case, wear rainproof clothing and pay attention to the rainfall of the past few days.

Levada Trail with Mossy Wall

Highlight • Trail

The levada path with its moss-covered wall feels like a green tunnel of stone and vegetation – truly atmospheric. As the water babbles beside you, you walk close to the damp, soft layer of moss and feel the cool forest air. A perfect section for a leisurely stroll and some atmospheric photos.

Really very nice levada tour with many waterfalls. Worth it and easy to hike - sturdy shoes are of course a prerequisite ;)

After the PR 1.2 to Pico Ruivo, we still had some time, so we hiked a good bit of PR 9, as it was roughly on the way back. Due to time constraints, we skipped the big waterfall at the end. But it was easy to bear after the Pico Ruivo experience.

I have often seen trout in the levadas, but never so many in one.

The day before yesterday, we couldn't do the tour from Queimadas to Caldeirão Verde because all classified hiking trails were closed. Due to the traffic chaos, I didn't want to return to the tour's starting point anymore.
