A beautiful and peaceful hike through the heart of Madeira. The Serra do Faial levada trail was surrounded by lush vegetation, beautiful mountain scenery and the sounds of nature. It was a wonderful way to experience the quieter side of the island.
We booked this walk as we had so much enjoyed the one we did on Tuesday. This was quite different due to the location, which we were pleased about. Our guide was excellent, full of fun and knowledge. Our pick up was very prompt. Our journey felt safe at all times. A very enjoyable morning despite the small amount of expected rain. Only time we have needed a warm layer and rainproof jacket all week. 😂😂
Very enjoyable walk. Hotel pickup. Group of 13. Flat walk with entertaining, knowledgable guide. Lots of plants, flowers pointed out. Mid way coffee stop. Would recommend.
The transport provided by the operator was punctual and efficient. The walk itself is exceptionally flat and perfect for beginners or anyone recovering from tougher hikes. It’s mostly covered by trees, which was great for a cloudy day.
This was a very easy walk, at a relaxing pace, good surfaces and no sheer drops. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the plants and trees. There was plenty of time to stop and look or take photos, provided you didn't mind missing out of some of the guide's comments
We recommend to wear comfortable and practical walking shoes and a bottle of water, as well as a waterproof jacket as the weather can change quickly. For full-day walks, bring a picnic and snacks for lunch.
