Levada dos Piornais & Câmara de Lobos

Directly from Lido we start steeply uphill in the direction of the Levada. The steps don't seem to want to end... when we arrived at the top we were really out of breath for the first time - phew! No wonder, the sun is burning at 27°C and a hike in the shade …

March 14, 2025,Madeira Tag 2. Levada dos Piornais

Day 2, Madeira. Today, we walked the Levada dos Piornais in beautiful weather. The first few kilometers are fantastic. You walk along a roughly 50cm wide concrete wall through the banana plantations along the levada. The last stretch, however, is not for the faint of heart. For this section, you walk along this wall, and right next to it, there's …

We are giving the island a second chance. On our first visit to Madeira we had a lot of rainy days and it was quite cool. But today the island shows itself at its best. At 23 degrees and a light wind we first hike along the coast. There is now one luxury hotel after the next. Still a nice …

September 10, 2021,Madeira: Levada dos Piornais bis Abzweig Camara de Lobos und an der Strandpromenade zurück

Very nice tour that requires good endurance. At the end of the Levada dos Piornais it gets a bit adventurous, a head for heights and flexibility are required. This section is particularly beautiful because it offers a bit of variety. After descending the stairs, our way through the middle of the banana plantation is not recommended! When you arrive in …

Day 2 on Madeira, unfortunately a rainy day, today more than 40l per square meter came down.

Today the path led us directly from the hotel up some stairs and steep streets, and then we hiked along the Levada dos Piornais. This led us past some banana plantations above Funchal and I was able to harvest a banana for the …
