Banana Plantations of Funchal

Highlight • Structure

Watch out. When turning into the valley, the path seems to have disappeared: there is a house under construction. But you can go right past the house over a very small path and overgrown levada

The "Santa Catarina Park" with the "Capela de Santa Catarina" is one of several small parks near the port of Funchal. In addition to the great view of the harbor, it invites you to linger with its small pond and the many seating options. But leave your bike here and continue on foot.

Very nice levada hike along the Levada dos Piornais in Funchal with very nice views over the city and insights into the banana plantations and small gardens along the levada. The levada is very well maintained and easy to walk on.
