ROCS Uncharted Adventures 10 Day Spectacular Madeira 2026

DAY 5 LEVADA DAS 25 FONTES

After breakfast, we prepare for the Levada das 25 Fontes walk, which begins at Estrada Regional No. 105 in Rabaçal and is considered one of the most popular trails among both tourists and locals. Covering 4.3 km with an estimated duration of about three hours, this route is perfect for those eager to experience the island’s rich natural beauty. Although it shares the same starting point as the Levada do Risco (PR 6.1) and runs almost parallel to it, the Levada das 25 Fontes offers a distinct journey. This medium‑difficulty path leads visitors to unique viewpoints and areas of great interest, setting it apart from the neighboring trail. Surrounded by stunning natural scenery, the route offers the chance to admire the Lagoon of the 25 Fontes, fed by waters descending from Paul da Serra and emerging through 25 individual springs—an impressive and memorable sight. Along the way, you’ll also enjoy remarkable landscapes, including sweeping views over the Ribeira da Janela valley. The lush Laurisilva forest, with its vibrant green tones, is a signature feature of this region. Upon reaching the Lagoon of the 25 Fontes, take some time to appreciate the peaceful setting and relax before returning along the same path. A picnic lunch will be enjoyed midway through the outing.
