La navette vous prend à Funchal ou Caniço et vous dépose au Pico do Areeiro, où vous entamez le PR1 classique complet : la crête jusqu'au Pico Ruivo, le toit de Madère à 1 862 mètres, puis la descente vers Achada do Teixeira, où le chauffeur vient vous récupérer. Environ 10 km et cinq heures de marche, en autonomie et à votre rythme. L'itinéraire complet a rouvert le 26 juin 2026 et fonctionne désormais tous les jours, en sens unique, d'Areeiro vers Ruivo. Un permis d'accès au sentier est obligatoire : 10,50 € par personne, à réserver à l'avance via SIMplifica. Les instructions complètes sont envoyées par e-mail après la réservation.","short_description":"PR1 en autonomie depuis le Pico do Areeiro, avec prise en charge à l'hôtel en navette partagée et récupération à Achada do Teixeira.

The weather was not on our side and we weren’t comfortable to do the PR1 due to strong winds. So, we decided not to risk it. We did the PR3 which was a very lovely hike. The trail is relatively well marked but we used All Trails to make sure we were on the correct path. PR3 is a very quiet trail and peaceful. We love mountains and trees and rivers, so it was excellent for us. PR3 is not challenging, apart in some small parts. We got to see some cute donkeys at the end and also had great coffee/tea/cake/food at the cafe near the bottom of the trail.\nMiguel is a top guide and an excellent drive! Very professional!
