Description

Full of natural wonder, Madeira is a paradise for people who enjoy spending time on a lush, beautiful island. And despite its small size, there is nonetheless an array of amazing places to explore, routes to hike, and viewpoints to enjoy.

For the purpose of this trip, one of our experienced guides would like to take you on a wonderful Levada walk. During this trek, you will venture to the highest points of Santana. Thus giving you a great opportunity to gaze as far as the eye can see. Beginning in the Queimadas rain forest, which you will get plenty of time to explore and enjoy, we will make our way to the Caldeirao Verde. Translated as the Green Cauldron, this area is breathtaking. It also highlighted by an amazing waterfall, which you will get to admire for as long as you wish.

The trek will last approximately 5 hours, and will cover approximately 13 kilometers. However, we will be hiking at a comfortable pace. Hence giving you lots of opportunities to rest when you need. You will also get to stop and take that perfect picture if the chance arises.

Due to the length of the hike, and because we will be trekking through some tunnels and venturing to some of the highest points of Madeira, you should be in good physical condition. Also, any prior hiking experience will definitely be helpful, but is not an absolute requirement.

If you are interested in seeing the natural beauty of Madeira, this hiking trip is for you. Just send us a request and let us guide you.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
