About this activity

Embark from Funchal to the enchanting landscapes of Madeira’s North Coast. Discover São Vicente’s waterfall, resembling a delicate bridal veil, and explore Seixal, home to a stunning black volcanic beach ranked among Europe’s best. Continue to Chão da Ribeira, surrounded by lush green valleys and traditional agricultural landscapes.

Journey to Porto Moniz and its unique volcanic pools before venturing into Fanal, an ancient Laurissilva Forest filled with twisted, moss-covered trees. Cross Paúl da Serra, Madeira’s vast highland plateau at 1,400 metres, with breathtaking views over the Atlantic and sea of clouds. Then enjoy an exhilarating off-road descent through the island’s untamed terrain before reaching Ponta do Sol, where spectacular coastal views provide the perfect finale to your adventure.
