Hike the Rabaçal walk, one of the best ways to absorb the nature of Madeira Island. See the astonishing Risco Waterfall - complete with natural springs cascading into a small lagoon, and walk through an 800-meter-long tunnel.

  • Enjoy panoramic views over the Valley of Rabaçal

Description

Descending from the plateau of Paúl da Serra, arrive to the Rabaçal guesthouse. From there, walk to the Risco Waterfall before descending to the Levada of 25 Fontes and walking along the maintenance path. You soon reach a small lake at the bottom of a cliff which towers high above you. From this cliff face, observe the 25 natural springs which cascade into the small lake. Walking back to the vehicle, travel through an 800-meter tunnel which is used to take water to the south of the island. Once having returned to the vehicle, your guide takes you back to your accommodation.
