The garden is a must and highly recommended, even in February the blooms were worth seeing. The small lake has nice big koi carp and is very well maintained.

Shrine of Our Lady of Monte

Highlight • Religious Site

Up the stairs and you are in front of the church Nossa Senhora do Monte. It is a Catholic pilgrimage church and was built from 1741. Due to an earthquake, the church was inaugurated in 1818

Monte Palace Tropical Garden

Highlight • Natural

A beautiful landscaped botanical garden, as is typical for Madeira, of course not at ground level. There are many stairs, narrow paths but also wider paths on which you can explore the different themed areas of the botanical garden. At the lower end there is a cafe with a beautiful view over Funchal. Worth seeing 🌴🌸🌺☀️

This is where the sleigh ride ends. As a souvenir, you can buy a picture taken of each sleigh for an exorbitant price. Afterwards, you can walk further down the mountain back to Funchal or take a taxi back up for a lot of money.
