Excellent stopping point on the Levada Nova route. It is possible to use it as the end point of the route for those coming from Ribeira Brava. Accessible by taxi.

Levada Nova (Madeira Natural Park)

Highlight • Trail

Long, dreamlike levada with spectacular views, partly exposed, through places and some waterfalls over, some tunnels, some with Bückzwang.
At the long tunnel just before the end with spectacular views of the waterfall has exposed the sat nav, hence the strange path documentation.
Most start on this Levada only in Lombada da Ponta do Sol.
However, the given altitude do not vote at all, then according to a Levada there is only a little slope!
