Hiking Tours & Levada Walks in Madeira

11 tours · €40–€55 per person · ★ 4.8

Levada walks are the best way to see Madeira on foot, tracing the island's old water channels through laurel forest and out along the cliffs. Booking a guided levada walk in Madeira keeps things simple, since the trailheads are spread across the island and a guide sorts the transfers and picks a route that suits your legs.

When you compare levada walks in Madeira, read the route before you book online. We'd look for the 25 Fontes and Risco waterfalls in the Rabaçal valley, the PR6 and PR6.1 trails, or the Stairway to Heaven ridge walk from Pico do Areeiro if you're after the big mountain views. Some are gentle half-day strolls; others are full-day hikes with real climbing and stairs. Prefer to set the pace yourself? A self-guided or private walk works well, and small-group options keep the cost down. Most include hotel pickup, so all you bring is good boots.

11 levada walks and hikes in Madeira from €40. Half-day and full-day, private and small-group, with hotel pickup and free cancellation on most - easy to book online.
