Madeira
(Landscapes S.)
Tour Madeira. While
dedicated hikers will revel in the island's mountainous terrain,
walking the 'levada' paths is one of the most popular activities
with visitors. Levadas are watercourses that carry rainfall
from the mountains to irrigate the cultivated terraces. These
watercourses and their adjoining maintenance paths extend for
an incredible 2150km/1350mi or more, but even more fascinating
is their great variety. The older levadas, built centuries ago,
are narrow and plummet steeply downhill from mountainside springs
really challenging walking. Their banks are covered with wild
flowers, and the water rushes and foams with energy. The newer
levadas are wide 'mini-canals' and run horizontally along the
island's contours ideal for easy walks. Their flow is stately
and serene, and their banks are lovingly planted with agapanthus
lilies and hydrangeas. Walking on Madeira is superb all year
round. 6 car tours, 100 long and short walks, 27 picnic suggestions
Plan of Funchal plus fold-out touring map.
