Adventure in Madeira 🌓

#outdooradventures My adventure in Madeira was like stepping into a paradise of dramatic cliffs, lush forests, and vibrant culture! 🌿 This Portuguese island, tucked away in the Atlantic, offers so much to explore. One of the highlights was hiking the famous *Levada* trails, which lead you through misty forests and stunning waterfalls. The *Levada das 25 Fontes* trail was unforgettable, with its moss-covered paths and hidden springs. There’s no entrance fee for the hikes, just pure nature and a sense of discovery. I also took a cable car ride from Funchal to Monte, which costs around €16 for a round trip. The views from above the city and coastline were breathtaking! Once at the top, I visited the Monte Palace Tropical Garden – an oasis of exotic plants and serene ponds. 🌺 Entrance was about €12, but it’s worth every cent for the peaceful atmosphere. For thrill-seekers, don't miss paragliding over the island’s cliffs, or taking a boat tour to spot dolphins and whales. 🐬 The island’s rugged coastline is also perfect for a day of exploring hidden coves or visiting the nearby Porto Moniz natural pools. Madeira has something for everyone, whether you're after adventure, relaxation, or a deep dive into nature’s beauty. Definitely a must-visit! #trip #madeira #hikingheaven #naturelovers #adventure #islandlife
