Waterfall Over Levada Nova

Highlight • Waterfall

Very nice hike. But please note that a head for heights is absolutely necessary on the levada Nova. Please don't underestimate it. We are experienced mountaineers but this trail is not to be scoffed at. No walk. It's very steep down here. If necessary, just walk the levada Moinho. Very beautiful and less exposed.

Levada Nova Tunnel and Waterfall

Highlight (Segment) • Cave

The tunnel is not that long, but it is definitely worth bringing a headlamp. After that you will find yourself right in front of the waterfall.
