Description

Begin your adventure in Madeira with a sunrise hiking transfer from Funchal or Caniço to Pico do Arieiro, the island’s second-highest peak. Enjoy the convenience of hotel pick-up and drop-off, making your journey to the mountains seamless and stress-free.

After a comfortable shared transfer, receive a map and helpful instructions from your host before setting off on a self-guided trek. The hike from Pico do Arieiro to Pico Ruivo, Madeira’s highest point, offers breathtaking views and unique landscapes as the sun rises over the peaks.

This challenging 10-kilometer route takes about five hours, leading you through dramatic mountain scenery and lush trails. The hike ends at Achada do Teixeira, where your driver will be waiting to bring you back to your accommodation.

Please note that food and water are not included, so come prepared for this physically demanding experience. A small forest fee is required and can be paid on the day. Weather can be unpredictable, and while sunrise views are a highlight, they cannot be guaranteed.

Spaces are limited for this popular sunrise trek, so secure your spot now and experience one of Madeira’s most iconic hiking routes. Check availability and book today to start your mountain adventure!
