25 Fontes (25 Springs) Waterfall

A beautiful natural spectacle that you don't see often. The 25 Fontes are certainly worth a visit. However, you share the joy with many other hikers.

Forest path with views in Madeira Natural Park

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This is a gorgeous place! Cool, calm, mystical. Here you can observe firecrests. The path goes up and down again and again, with many stairs, as is common in Madeira.
