Full description Starting from the Lido, where our route begins, the first stop is Terreiro da Luta. Our route continues to the mountain Pico do Arieiro. With an altitude of 1818 metres, it is the third highest peak on the island and offers breathtaking views.

After visiting Madeira's highest (passable) peak, we descend towards the coast through the original forest to the last remaining dwelling of Madeira's iconic thatched houses. Passing through picturesque villages and breathtaking seascapes, we reach the most easterly point for superb views of the bold northern and sunny southern coasts in a panoramic view.

On the northern slopes of the island, the route reaches a popular starting point for levada walks, Ribeiro Frio. With its interesting trout ponds, this area still retains much of its original vegetation. The island was once completely covered by Laurissilva forest, a vestige of prehistoric times.
Time for lunch in Santana, characterised by its small triangular houses with thatched roofs.

Then we will head towards Ponta de São Lourenço, located in the eastern part of the island, this is the place where a fantastic combination of rocks, sea and nature come together.
The last town to visit is Machico, a viewpoint from where you can look out over the bay and the golden sandy beach.
