Ribeiro do Inferno

Highlight • Gorge

The Ribeiro do Inferno, the so-called Hell Valley, is paved with paths, but is a little less accessible terrain, especially due to the often slippery paths and uneven surfaces. But it is always doable with hiking boots.

Here you will find old giant trees (laurel, fir) and a largely cleared slope. The Ribeiro is located in the middle of the gardens, in the north-western part of the complex. From here you can get back to the camellia avenue and the main entrance.

Old House of Palheiro

Highlight • Restaurant

The former hunting lodge of the Counts of Carvahal has been transformed into the Casa Velha do Palheiro. Well-heeled guests can enjoy five-star luxury here. The guest list is impressive.

View of Palheiro Golf Course

Highlight • Viewpoint

A small view of the golf course during my tour.

The golf course now almost completely surrounds the central gardens that are still preserved. The Blandy family once farmed this area.

Palheiro Ferreiro Chapel

Highlight • Religious Site

pretty chapel used for weddings and other celebrations. From here you have many great views of the spacious park area, which is very beautifully designed, especially in the lower part of the park

Palheiro Gardens

Highlight • Natural Monument

If you have already done some beautiful, strenuous tours on Madeira, I recommend a leisurely trip to Blandy's Garden. Unusual trees, bushes and flowers from all over the world enchant the senses. The best time, of course, is spring/summer. These photos are from the end of August, so the rose garden had unfortunately already faded. Palheiro Gardens is by far more worthwhile than the Botanical Garden on Madeira.
