Walking Holidays In Madeira

The island of Madeira, situated off the Moroccan coast in the Atlantic Ocean, is famous for its milder winters and dramatic levadas trails that traverse the southern slopes of the island. Both these factors make Madeira a great place for some winter, spring and autumn walking.

Explore’s tour covers the length and breadth of the island, staying in Sao Jorge, Porto Moniz, Ribeira Brava and the island’s capital Funchal. One of the most spectacular walks on the island is the dramatic balcony walk to Ruivo, Madeira’s highest peak.
