Discover the peaceful beauty of the Rabaçal highlands as you set out to explore two of Madeira’s most charming walking paths within the heart of the Laurissilva Forest. Your journey begins with a relaxed transfer from your accommodation, guided by a friendly local host who shares knowledge about the landscapes, traditions and natural features of the island. As you approach the starting point, you receive clear guidance that helps you understand the paths, the environment and the best way to enjoy your walk at your own pace. Surrounded by fresh mountain air and the quiet of the forest, you begin your self guided adventure amid green valleys, gentle water channels and the soothing sounds of nature.
Once on the trails, you are free to immerse yourself fully in the serene atmosphere of Rabaçal, following the calm watercourse of the Levada do Alecrim or making your way to the beautiful lagoon and waterfall found at Lagoa do Vento. Your host ensures you feel prepared and confident, offering useful advice before you begin and meeting you at the same spot when you complete your walk. This experience blends the independence of exploring alone with the comfort and reassurance of having local support throughout your journey. At the end of your hike, you simply return to the meeting point where your host welcomes you back and drives you comfortably to your hotel.
