May 23, 2024,Ponta do Sol - Levada Nova zum Café Sitio da Ribeira

Unfortunately, the recorded altitude is once again incorrect. Should be over 400 m. Starting point at 90 m.

Beautiful tour on the Levada Nova. Great to walk, very nice view of the sea and the valleys. In Ribeira da Tabua we made a stop at the cafe, very good coffee and homemade cake, really tasty. Then we went back to Ponta di Sol.
