View of Penha de Águia from Portela

Highlight • Viewpoint

Green mountains that extend to the blue depths of the sea: is it possible to describe the scenery that awaits visitors to the Miradouro da Portela in Madeira. Located at an altitude of 670 meters, it offers breathtaking views.
On the horizon rises the magnificent Penha d'Águia, a 600-meter-high geological formation that separates the municipalities of Machico and Santana. In addition, the entire landscape of the Miradouro da Portela is complemented by the sea in the background that washes the island.

This hiking trail in the Madeira Natural Park forest leads you through a tranquil, densely overgrown landscape full of ferns, mosses, and ancient trees. The pleasant coolness of the forest, the chirping of birds, and the gentle rustling of leaves create a relaxed, almost fairytale-like atmosphere. An idyllic stretch, perfect for breathing deeply and enjoying Madeira's unspoiled nature.

View of Pico do Furado

Highlight • Viewpoint

Nice place to take a break with a view. When the wind blows from the north, low clouds on the slope can not continue and rise at this point over one. You are then stuck in the mist like in a steam sauna. Fine water pearls sat on the bushes / plants, so that they can store enough moisture even without rain and partially release them again.
