What to expect

Follow the footpath along Madeira's well-known Levada do Furado from Ribeiro Frio to Portela. Marvel at the interplay of light and shade filtering through the laurel and heather trees on this stunning hiking path.

You'll see the trout that swim in the levada make a dash for cover when they sense your approach. As you get closer to Lamaceiros, the view of Porto da Cruz and Eagle Rock far below is something out of this world.

    Travelled with family

    Tolle Tour um zur Ruhe zukommen. Sehr angenehm bei warmen Temperaturen, evtl. leichte Jacke mitnehmen. Einige kurze Abschnitte erfordern Schwindelfreiheit. Unser Guide war top, gab nichts zu beanstanden! Gerne wieder!

    Travelled as a couple

    Klasse Bergführerin, die die Kondition und Trittfestigkeit der einzelnen Gruppenmitglieder richtig eingeschätzt und im Interesse unserer Sicherheit die richtige Strecke gewählt hat. Vor allem hat sie uns aber sehr gut und sympathisch über die Insel und ihre Flora und Fauna informiert. Das war ein sehr schöner Tag für uns!
