When you see the parking lot, you have completed the approximately 8 km and around 1000 meters of altitude (ascent and descent) from Pico do Areeiro over Pico Ruivo and have experienced what is probably the most beautiful hike on Madera.

From here you have a good view of the Pico do Areeiro parking lot – ideal for orientation before or after your hike. You can see exactly where the trails start and get a sense of how busy it is. It's the perfect spot to take a short break before heading back to the car or onto the trail.
