Suggestion for the day:

• Take the Day for a Hiking Adventure: With its many gorgeous mountains and waterfalls, it’s no surprise that Madeira has long been referred to as a “hiker’s paradise”. Many of these trails follow the old irrigation canals called “levadas” that were used to bring water from the north side of the island to the south. Although still used today, many of these canals are also widely used for walking. No matter your preference or experience level, there are many different types of trails all over Madeira. Beginners or those looking for a more leisurely nature walk should stick to the south side of the island, while those looking for a more exhilarating trekking experience should head north to the mountainous side of the island.

Recommended Hikes:

• Vale do Paraíso (easy)
• Rabaçal - 25 Fontes (moderate)
• Caldeirão Verde (moderate)
• Ponta de São Lourenço (moderate)
• Pico do Areeiro - Pico Ruivo (difficult)

Suggestion for the day:

• Dip your toes in the refreshing ocean at dawn and spend a leisurely day exploring local shops to pick up artisanal souvenirs and local delicacies (such as bolo do caco and poncha) to bring back home.

Wishing you a safe and cozy flight back, and looking forward to exploring more adventures with you in the near future!
