⚠️ Community route (mapped on AllTrails) — not part of Madeira's official PR trail network managed by IFCN (the regional government's forests & nature-conservation authority). It therefore has no official open/closed status and no maintenance/signage guarantee; check access and conditions locally before going.

The hike

This is a stunning point-to-point trail on Madeira's eastern side. It starts at the Casa dos Levadeiros and follows the Vereda da Boca do Risco – Larano path. You'll walk through agricultural fields and small exotic forests until you reach Boca do Risco, one of the most beautiful natural viewpoints on the island's east side — dramatic cliff-edge views over the Atlantic.

From Boca do Risco, you can either branch towards Caniçal or continue towards Porto da Cruz via Larano. The Larano stretch is breathtaking, but it's exposed and can be risky in places — extra caution is needed, especially after rain or on windy days.
