Pico do Areeiro / Pico Ruivo

Descrição:
This walk starts at Pico do Areeiro, at approximately 1818 meters above sea level and ends at the highest point of Madeira, Pico Ruivo (around 1861 meters). Along its 10km, it is possible to witness panoramic views of Madeira over the central mountain range that are absolutely breathtaking. After taking in the surroundings in Pico do Areeiro, the course leads to Ninho da Manta where you will have privileged views over Fajãda Nogueira Valley, Nun’s Valley as well as the highest plateau in the island – Paul da Serra. This mountain range is integrated in the Natura 2000 Network, an European network of great importance for nature conservation. Here nests the Freira da Madeira, one of the most endangered and important bird species in Europe. In this area, the vegetation of altitude is predominant, mainly of Centenary endemic Urzes; these large trees predate Madeira’s discovery.

Still, getting to the top is reinvigorating and beyond that, you will be rewarded with a 360° panoramic view that can only be experienced up there.
