Crossing from Pico do Areeiro to Pico Ruivo – Exclusive Experience After Lunch

Explore the heart of Madeira's central mountain range on a unique crossing between Pico do Areeiro and Pico Ruivo, at 1,862 metres. Leaving after lunch, you will find fewer tourists and avoid the large groups in the morning, ensuring a more tranquil and immersive experience.

During the hike, you will:
• Admire panoramic views of the valleys and mountains in the centre of the island
• Visit the famous Ninho da Manta viewpoint
• The iconic “Stairs to Heaven”
• Observe the local fauna and flora, which are always present along the way

This is a demanding route that requires good physical condition, but it rewards you with spectacular views and unique moments in the nature of Madeira.

At the end of the hike, a transfer will be waiting for us, with a brief stop in Santana to admire the traditional houses typical of the region.

An exclusive crossing, perfect for those seeking adventure, contact with nature, and breathtaking landscapes.
