The start of the levada at Queimadas with a traditional thatched roof sets the setting from a walk which allows for contact with the verdant Laurisilva forest.

Discover a densely wooded landscape that captures the imagination and marvel at views over the island’s North coast, as you wind your way into the remote heart of Madeira.
