- Zona Velha - Embark on our Jeep from Funchal to Poiso at 1412 meters altitude, passing through Montado do Pereiro (a protected Natural Area), with the beautiful bay as a backdrop. Enjoy dramatic views and breathtaking landscapes over both the south and north sides of the island.
We will traverse the old town with its very narrow roads.
- Abrigo do Poiso Restaurant - After navigating the natural park, we reach Poiso at 1400 meters altitude.
After passing through the dense forest and arriving at Poiso, we continue ascending towards Pico Areeiro. Beyond 1400 meters, enjoy a more panoramic landscape as we climb to the mountain’s summit.
- Pico Do Areeiro - Visit Pico do Arieiro, the island’s third-highest peak at 1811 meters above sea level. Experience dramatic mountain views, often above the clouds! Take time to explore the area and uncover some hidden gems.
Pico do Arieiro is part of Madeira’s dramatic mountain scenery.
- Miradouro do Juncal - Situated on Madeira’s third-highest peak, Juncal viewpoint is a premier sunrise spot in Madeira.
Don’t forget your camera for unique photos above the clouds.
- Pico Do Areeiro - After Pico Areeiro, we begin a slow descent through the scenic road to the Nuns Valley.
Along the way, we’ll stop to enjoy another stunning view.
- Miradouros Do Paredao - Miradouro do Paredão (1500m) - Offers excellent panoramic views over Funchal and the iconic parish of Curral das Freiras.
- Miradouro Eira do Serrado - Eira do Serrado (1095m) - Provides an unobstructed view of Curral das Freiras, surrounded by Madeira’s majestic green mountains.
A short walk is required to reach the viewpoint.
If visibility is unclear above 1300m, we will head directly from Funchal to the Eira do Serrado viewpoint.
- Miradouro Pico Dos Barcelos - Pico dos Barcelos - Offers a view of the large valley that acts as a natural amphitheater for Funchal on one side, and the serene sea along Madeira’s south coast on the other.
Located in Santo António parish - home to the ‘Andorinha’ football club, where Cristiano Ronaldo began his career - this observatory is at 355 meters altitude, perfect for enjoying peaceful views of Funchal’s urban landscape, especially its bay.
On clear days, the Pico dos Barcelos Viewpoint also allows views of the Desertas Islands, a group of three small volcanic islands: Ilhéu Chão, Deserta Grande, and Bugio. This is truly a magnificent and memorable panoramic view.
