The first irrigation channels were made in Madeira in the 15th century. The reason: they wanted to direct water from rainy areas to low-rainfall areas of the island. Along these levadas there are wonderful hiking trails through untouched nature - and to places that you would otherwise never reach. There are a total of over 2,000 km of interconnected Levada trails.

Madeira offers hikers much more: challenging mountain hikes, panoramic coastal hikes, exciting tunnel crossings, roaring waterfalls and tours through the famous laurel forest. Whatever you want to experience on your hiking excursions in Madeira: We will give you the best tips.
