Full description
The Levada do Norte is one of the largest and most important levadas (irrigation channels) of the island of Madeira, running through much of the region. This magnificent stretch of the Levada do Norte begins just below the well-known Cabo Girão, leading hikers to the area of Boa Morte in Ribeira Brava. This 2-hour tour takes you on a very pleasant and easy trail that can be done all year around as it is located in the southern part of the island, where the climate is milder. Along the way, you can enjoy the fantastic views of the parishes of Câmara de Lobos and Campanário. You can also admire the green fields, the carefully worked plantations, and as set of houses and buildings that form the villages. Occasionally, you may pass some local people of the area handling their land or just taking a walk.

The walk overall was enjoyable. I was however uncomfortable at some points (as a person who doesn’t like heights) as there were areas of the walk which were very narrow, rocky and uneven ground with sheer drops and no barriers. I would say 80% was ok but 20% was uncomfortable. It was purely a guided walk but very little commentary or insights shared by the guide. Would most definitely recommend doing walks with a guide as there was no signage visible on our walk at any point and it would appear quite easy to get disoriented or lost.

toffe wandeling, leuke gids, maar geen duidelijke afspraken qua ophaling, meer dan een uur vertraging.

Ales gut war sehr Interessant und Spannend.

War sehr gut und Interessant und Spannend. Das Wetter hat auch mit gespielt und es war eine nette Gruppe. Der Gaid hautnah mit gut Infos Unterhalten und Unterstützt. Was uns ein wenig gestört hat das mit den Abholzeiten das ist nicht immer ganz Klar den je nach dem im welchem Hotel das man ist gibt es Unterschiedliche Zeit. Da sind wir der Meinung das sollte noch besser werden. Speziell wen es Gäste gibt die nicht auf der Kiste sind und nochmals Angefahren werden müssen das ist sehr Ärgerlich für die Restlichen Gäste. Leider Passiert. Bitte versuchen genauere Zeiten Angeben für die Abholung. Danke sonst alles gut und hat sehr viel Freude gemacht. Ganz schöne Grüsse Familie Brunelli und Gasser.
