This scenic levada walk on Madeira's north coast follows the Levada Fajã do Rodrigues from the hamlet of Ginjas along the water channel carved into the hillside, winding through lush laurel forest and offering beautiful views of the deep Ribeira do Inferno valley before arriving at the dramatic gorge where the levada ends.
