Tunnel on the Levada do Caldeirão Verde

Highlight • Structure

As of January 2025, this second tunnel on the tour is closed. There is no alternative route to Caldeira Verde and Inferno. The tour is very beautiful anyway, but if you set out with the goal in mind, it is of course a bit disappointing if you don't reach it. The closure is also marked on the map at the parking lot, but unfortunately in such a way that it can easily be overlooked.

PR9 hike with four tunnel crossings

Highlight • Trail

The PR9 hike features four tunnel crossings, adding a touch of adventure to the tour. Sometimes it's only briefly dark, other times you'll be walking in semi-darkness for quite a while – a headlamp or phone light is very useful here. In between, you'll enjoy views of gorges, waterfalls, and the lush green landscape of Madeira.

Caldeirão Verde Levada

Highlight • Trail

Great tour along the Levada, through a rainforest. The paths are easy to walk on. Nevertheless, good shoes, a rain jacket (just in case) and lamps (several small tunnels) are recommended. The paths are secured. At the end of the tour you will be rewarded with the sight of a beautiful waterfall.
