ENG follows
De Ribeiro Frio a Portela per la Levada do Furado, un recorregut preciós pel bosc de Laurisilva que acaba amb vistes al mar. La levada està perfectament conservada, el camí té baranes i els túnels són fàcils i curts. Els 11Km poden resultar una mica monòtons. Restaurants a l'inici i al final, taules de picnic a Lamaceiros (foto al waypoint). El bus per tornar de Portela no passa gaire sovint però hi ha taxis (en temporada) a l'espera del turista. Cal nergociar preu. El restautan de dalt (a Portela) no era gaire bo, el de baix no ho sabem.
A Riberio Frio visitar el criador de truites i fer la passejada fins al mirador de Balcoes.
Well preserved levada, path ok, tunels short and easy. Restaurants and Bus stop at Riverio Frio where you can take the path to Balcoes view point. Don't miss the fish growery on the road near Riveiro Frio. Picnic area Lamaceiros (see waypoint). Bus at Portela not often, on season there are taxis waiting for tourist, must negociate the price. The upper restaurant at Portela wasn't very good, don't know about the lower one.
