Canyoning
Getting down the rivers of Madeira is a way to see undiscovered and untouched parts of the island, while revelling in the exciting journey through transparent waters. During summer the northern rivers are the most appropriate, as the flows are high and there is enough white water to create an exciting challenge. During winter, however, we recommend the streams to the south, with gentler, quieter flows.
Climbing
Madeira’s volcanic origins and its rugged mountainous relief are a guarantee of adventurous moments. To summit the impressive and magnificent mountains bursting directly from the sea is a memorable conquest for any climber worth his salt.
The favoured areas for climbing are the central mountain range, the sea cliffs and some of the northern cliffs.
Trekking
Madeira’s challenging terrain and mountainous environment typical are a route-planner’s delight. Beautiful landscapes provide the opportunity for deep contact with nature. The northern and the central mountain range are perfect areas for this kind of activity.
Cycling
Discover the pleasures of riding a bicycle along Levadas and unpaved roads, through forest and mountains, making the best of the friendly landscape.
