Hiker on the cliffs of Ponta de São Lourenço above the Atlantic, Madeira

Madeira by van

Madeira is a mountain island rising from the Atlantic, covered by UNESCO-listed laurel forests and criss-crossed by 2,500 km of levadas, irrigation channels turned into hiking trails. In a compact van, you reach the viewpoints and the villages of the north coast.
