Best places: Hiking areas in Setúbal

Photogenic footpath featuring trails & stunning views of a massive crater lake at Sete Cidades.

Headland & nature reserve on Madeira's eastern tip with a footpath, rich birdlife & rare seals.

👍👍 Beautiful and scary. In full sun it is also very hot so get a lot of water with you. Good thing you can fill your bottles in the shelter.

👍👍 Walk without ups and downs, 5h in total (going and back on the same route). Doable for families but maybe not the whole way. There are waterfalls and tunnels. The 3rd tunnel is quite tricky because there is a lot of water on the floor but if you keep left and walk on the stones you are going to be f...

👍👍 One of the best hikes of Madeira and quite strenuous as well with steep inclines and declines. People who are fearful of height shouldn’t attempt it or should do it with caution. Since this is a very popular hike, it gets really really busy so to avoid the crowd suggest to start early. We started at...

👍👍 Very beautiful waterfall and walking to go there You park the car near the road and first you go down 1.8 km to the snack bar where you will find beverages and sandwiches Then an easy walk of 1,2 km to go to the waterfall When you come back to the snack bar, if you don’t want to go up during 1.8 km...

👍👍 We rested on the Costa de Caparica for three days. This is a cozy and lovely place. House for rent within walking distance of the beach. Cozy promenade with many cafes and restaurants, there is everything you need on vacation and even more)

Looped hiking trail featuring the ruins of 3 water mills, plus stone tunnels & waterfalls.

👍 Really nice and easy, no walking up the hill. But if is wet, bring waterproof shoes, be careful of mud. And watch out. There are rocks falling on the way and about 380 meters before end the road is blocked by huge fall of rocks and trees. It can be walk through only be experienced men.

👍👍 A wonderful walk with nice views and access to two waterfalls. But be aware, there are many stairs an steps, you'll have to take. Take care, that you are feeling good and healthy while starting the walk.

👍👍 The Caminho do Pináculo e Folhadal (PR17) is one of - if not the - most beautiful levadas/veredas on Madeira Island. It starts and finishes in Encumeada, and takes you to magnificent views over both the Saõ Vicente valley as well as the Ribeira Brava valley, and the mountain range in-between. You ge...

Hiking route with steps & narrow walkways leading through forest to a swimming spot fed by cascades.

👍👍 We walked PR 1.3 from Encumeada to Pico de Ruivo and back; it took about 4 hours one way. In the summer it tends to get cloudy from noon on, so start early to make sure you’ll get those breathtaking views. Especially stunning is the silhouette of the entire PR1, which shows in the distance around th...

👍👍 Beautiful walk. Not much of an incline. The path is flat and easy to navigate. The views are worth the walk. Some birds are fed and are not too afraid of people. The space at the top can get a little crowded.

👍👍 I live near this area and I never get bored of it. Very peaceful and beautiful. I especially go there for evening walk. We can see beautiful sunset. It's more beautiful when there's more water in the bay.

Tree-lined path running by an irrigation channel, passing native forest, tunnels & small waterfalls.

👍👍 It is absolutely perfect for the romantic and relaxing walk :) I would recommend doing it in the afternoon - on our round trip we met only couple of people. As the name says it is appropriate for everyone - the elderly, children, people with disabilities as the path is flat and wide. It ends at Quei...
