A Ride Through Madeira’s Ecological Paradise
Our tour starts at “Terreiro da Luta”, from where we enjoy a wonderful view over São Gonçalo. From now on we drive steadily up to the “Montado do Pereiro” through the “Parque Ecológico do Funchal” and on to the plateau of “Chão da Lagoa”.
We are compensated by great trails, the drive along the “Levada da Serra do Faial” and a rapid descent to Caniço de Baixo.
This incredible tour begins at Terreiro da Luta, perched above 1000 m, offering stunning panoramic views over Funchal. From here, we take on a steady and rewarding climb into the heart of the Parque Ecológico do Funchal, a protected area within the Laurissilva Forest, home to unique endemic species and breathtaking landscapes.
Reaching the vast Chão da Lagoa plateau, we navigate a mix of thrilling single trails and scenic dirt roads, leading us to the spectacular Pico do Suna. After the climb, we are rewarded with an unforgettable ride along the Levada da Serra do Faial, winding through lush greenery and offering yet another perspective on Madeira’s natural beauty.
