Birds of Paradise, Tritomes, Agapanthes and Hortensias - Madeira is distinguished by a mild climate throughout the year and a proliferation of flowers. This beauty in the Atlantic is a paradise for hikers. 60 very different excursions along Levadas and Mountain are presented in the Rother "Madeira" Hiking guide.
narrow irrigation canals, called Levadas, cross the island in every way. The paths arranged for the discovery of Madeira without having to overcome any significant differences: passage by artistically modeled terraces, crossing of impressive gorges and valleys still intact with a subtropical vegetation with persistent leaves. This volcanic island, with its central massive of almost 1900 m altitude, also offers alpine hiking routes, such as the spectacular route fashioned in the rock that rises from Pico do Arieiro to Pico Ruivo - the royal hiking of the island. The discretes of shepherd trails and the "Veredas", ancient communication paths which, until a few decades ago, was the only way to access the isolated towns, are pleasant.
