Itinerario

  1. Along the Ponta de São Lourenço Trail ( PR8 ), you'll encounter multiple geosites and points of geological interest, turning this hike into a true open-air classroom where you can observe, interpret, and understand the volcanic, tectonic, and erosive processes that shaped Madeira. The trail is located within the Ponta de São Lourenço Natural Monument, which offers a unique chance to explore the geological origin and evolution of Madeira, a volcanic island on the African Plate. The experience is further enhanced by the constant presence of the Atlantic Ocean and the peninsula's semi-arid environment, which hosts a distinctive landscape and ecosystem found nowhere else on the island.

About Funchal

Funchal is the capital of Madeira, a Portuguese island in the Atlantic, set on steep green hills with flower-filled gardens and a seafront old town.

Funchal spreads up a steep hillside above a natural harbour on Madeira's south coast. The old town, the Zona Velha, has narrow lanes with painted doors and small restaurants, and the cathedral dates from around 1500. The Mercado dos Lavradores sells tropical fruit, fish and flowers in a hall decorated with blue tiles. A cable car climbs from the harbourfront to Monte, high above.
