Itinerary description

This tray is less touristic and you have a great view if there is no mist in the mountains.

First you follow the famous Levada do Furado for approximatly one hour before you left it to climb the mounians. Now you go steeply up from 800m high to 1150m high and can enjoy the famous Madaira forrest and in the end the great view if the weather is kindly to you;)
