Hard road ride. Very good fitness required. Mostly well-paved surfaces and easy to ride. The starting point of the route is right next to a parking lot.

Very mystical in thick fog. The centuries-old trees extend their branches into the fog. Even dead trunks form new life.

Crest Road of Madeira Natural Park

Highlight • Cycleway

Madeira Island is, literally, a mountain that rises from the middle of the ocean. Given the extremely rugged topography, flat stretches at altitude are rare. This stretch is an exception, and offers peaceful cycling with panoramic views.
