September 17, 2022,Madeira von Marocos nach Portela🎒🥾🍀💚

In the beginning around 700 steps, otherwise a lot of forest and wide forest paths.

December 17, 2024,PR5 Vereda das Funduras, von Portela nach Maroços

All in all, a nice tour. Especially the middle part. We decided to walk from the top (Portela) to the bottom. It was a good decision. The descent down what felt like a thousand steps to Maroços was not easy. But going up is high-performance sport.
