1-Week Madeira Itinerary for Adventurous Travelers

Experience the best adventures on this stunning island in one week with our detailed Madeira, Portugal itinerary. You’ll explore beach towns, scenic hikes, and charming villages—all while getting insider tips on where to stay, what to see, and how to make the most of your trip.

Madeira is a place where rugged beauty meets endless adventure.

Rising out of the Atlantic Ocean, this Portuguese island boasts dramatic cliffs, misty forests, colorful coastal villages, and black sand beaches.

It feels both wild and welcoming.

We spent one adventure-filled week in Madeira with our two young daughters, and while we had high expectations, we were honestly blown away.We put together what we think is a perfect one week Madeira itinerary for travelers seeking adventure, culture, good food, and a little bit of magic!

Our experience in Madeira

We’ll be honest—before visiting Madeira, we were a little nervous. We’d seen so much on social media about it being overcrowded, and there wasn’t a lot of solid info online about the hikes we wanted to do. 

But once we arrived, all our worries disappeared—we absolutely loved it!

Traveling in Madeira feels completely different from exploring mainland Portugal. You have to stay flexible (the weather changes constantly!), which is exactly why we designed our Madeira itinerary with interchangeable days. 

The island itself is unlike anywhere we’ve ever been—while bits of it reminded us of other places, the overall experience was totally unique. 

And for what it’s worth, we didn’t find it nearly as crowded as people made it out to be. That said, we were there just before peak season and we put a lot of thought into timing to avoid the crowds as much as possible.

One more thing to note about our trip to Madeira is that we traveled there with our two young daughters (3.5 years old and 6 months old). In our opinion, it is a wonderful place to travel with kids.

How many days in Madeira; is one week enough?

We think one week in Madeira is the perfect amount of time to experience the island’s highlights without feeling rushed. 

With seven days, you can explore the dramatic coastlines, hike a few of the island’s epic trails, chase waterfalls, and still have time to relax by the sea. 

If you have extra days, there’s plenty more to discover—we have suggestions for more things to do below—but one week is a great starting point for a well-balanced Madeira adventure.

Important note about this itinerary:

We think the order of the days in this itinerary is great and balances out the hiking. However, the weather in Madeira is notoriously unpredictable and will dictate which part of the island it makes sense to spend your time. For this reason, we made these days flexible and interchangeable. 

We recommend that you stay somewhat flexible and look at the weather forecast the night before to determine the best region to explore the following day. 

Day 1: Arrive in Madeira

If you arrive to Madeira in the afternoon, you may only have time to: 

• get your rental car
• stock up on groceries
• settle into your accommodation

(That’s what we did on our first evening.)

Tip: This grocery store will be on most people’s routes after leaving the airport, and has a good selection. Be sure to check out our grocery tips in our Madeira resources section.

Day 2: 25 Waterfalls hike & dinner with a view

AT A GLANCE: Hike the Levada das 25 Fontes (25 waterfalls hike) before heading to the south coast to explore Madalena do Mar.

PR6 Levada das 25 Fontes (25 waterfalls hike)

• Distance: 7.2 km (4.5 miles)
• Out and back
• Time: 3-3.5 hours
• Elevation gain: 465m (1,525 ft)
• AllTrails notes

Aim to be starting the hike by 9 a.m. at the latest. Backwards plan how long the drive will take from your accommodation so you know when to leave.

This is a popular levada hike, for good reason. It is beautiful and worthwhile, but only if you start early. The path is very narrow and if you start late, you’ll constantly be bumping into other hikers going the opposite direction.

Parking: Park here

Entry fee: Be sure to purchase an online entry ticket here before you leave and screenshot it to your phone. There are rangers checking that you’ve done this, and paying on the spot can take additional time.

Optional: After making it to the end (do this first because it gets the most congested), add on a hike to Risco Waterfall. This adds an additional 1 mile total (flat trail, no levada) and we recommend it. 

Madalena do Mar

Head to the tiny village of Madalena do Mar (about 25 minutes driving), which is known for its seaside banana plantations that you can walk through.

First, stop for oceanside drinks at A Taberna Madalena do Mar. This is a great place to try poncha and/or a Nikita (local drinks) for your first time. If you’re hungry, grab a snack: limpets, calamari, or bolo do caco, but we recommend saving your appetite for the dinner spot.

Banana plantation walk

There are a few different walks you can do through banana plantations in this town. We chose RB2. It’s flat and peaceful (we only saw one other couple on this walk). Just walk as far as you’d like and turn back.

Optional stop: Cascada dos Anjos

Instagram-famous waterfall that mists over a road near the ocean. It is notoriously very busy and parking is limited to the sides of the streets. It was busy when we drove past & we opted to skip it. 

Important note about driving: While we were there, the road Cascata dos Anjos is on was impassable. Even though it appears as a route on Google Maps, we were unable to drive it and had to very awkwardly make a 7-point turn to return the way we came. 

Day 3: Fanal Forest & the northwest coast

AT A GLANCE: Today you will visit the mystical Fanal Forest & some swimming spots along the northwest coast.

Fanal Forest

This mystical forest is often shrouded in fog and makes for really cool photos (particularly when it’s foggy). There are also cows here, which were fun for our toddler to see. 

The fog can sometimes last all day or can disappear by 11 a.m. (It’s not as interesting when it’s not foggy). Aim to arrive before 9 a.m. for the best chance of fog.

There is free parking here (with facilities – though the bathroom wasn’t great – bring your own TP). If there is a crowd around the entrance, just keep walking and you’ll eventually spread out. 

Plan to spend around 1 hour here, and don’t miss the Witch Tree (another fun photo opportunity). 

It can be a little disorienting when it’s foggy (in a pinch, Google Maps can help you find your way back to the entrance).

Insider tip: Wear warm clothes because it can get really cold up here. Your shoes will get muddy – wear hiking boots if you have them.

Seixal beach

Next walk or drive to Seixal Beach. There’s a small parking lot close to the beach but it has limited spaces & can get congested. 

This is an iconic black sand beach flanked by lush cliffs. Bring a blanket and your swim suit to stay a while.

Seixal Natural Swimming Pools 

• Entry fee: €2.5 per person

These beautiful oceanside natural pools are less crowded than pools in Porto Moniz, but smaller. Find parking on the road near here, then walk down the steep road toward the pools.

Insider Tip: Order a piña colada (NA available) at Rock Pools.

Option A) Iconic sights in Porto Moniz

Next: You’ll have 2 options for how you spend the afternoon, so be sure to read the descriptions…

Ribeira da Janela

Start the drive to Porto Moniz (10-minute drive), but stop along the way at Ribeira da Janela. This is an iconic viewpoint of a sea stack rock formation you can view through a small cave-like tunnel or directly from the beach. 

This is a quick stop and shouldn’t take more than 15 minutes. Park here (free parking lot with public restrooms). 

Insider Tip: Get a bird’s eye view of the sea stacks from this pull out on your way to Porto Moniz. 

Porto Moniz Natural Swimming Pools

• 3€ entry

These man-made pools built up along the coast are filled by (cold!) ocean water. They are definitely touristy, but cool to see and very reasonably priced. Plus they have shallow areas that are great for kids (and a lifeguard on duty). 

Insider Tip: You can get a birds eye view of the pools from the public lookout on top of Sea View Restaurant.

There is paid parking all over the town of Porto Moniz, so find whatever parking spot you can and know that you may have to walk 10 minutes or so. 

Alternative: Piscinas Naturais do Aquário: Natural pools (more similar to Seixal) that are free to enter and just down the coast from the Porto Moniz pools (about a 10 min walk).

Viewpoints on the drive home

Be sure to check out these iconic views on the drive back to your accommodation (if it’s in the right direction):

• Miradouro do Véu da Noiva: Famous viewpoint of a waterfall cascading into the ocean.
• Tunnel view: As you exit this tunnel (heading east), you’ll get amazing views of mountains in the frame of the tunnel. Be careful driving.

Option B) Hidden gems & wine tasting

If you want to skip the touristy pools at Porto Moniz for something a little more off the beaten path, consider this alternative route:

Ribeira do Inferno hike

• Distance: 1.4 km (0.9 miles)
• Out and back
• Elevation gain: 124m (406 ft)
• Time: 45 minutes
• Park here
• AllTrails notes

This short hidden gem hike follows a quiet stretch of the old coastal road just 10 minutes from Seixal. The trail winds between dramatic cliffs draped in greenery and sweeping ocean views. 

The path leads to the awe-inspiring Ribeira do Inferno gorge, where rushing water echoes off the towering canyon walls—making it feel like you’ve stumbled into another world.

Wine tasting

Make a reservation to go wine tasting at 4 p.m. Here are two great options to choose from:

Option A) Quinta do Barbusano winery

• Wine tasting includes a vineyard tour and some small snacks for pairing
• €20 per person
• Tasting times: 10 am, 11:45 am, 2:30 pm, 4 pm
• Make reservations

Option B) Terrabonna Nature & Vineyards

• Available: Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday
• Available at 4 p.m., 2 hours long
• €35 per person
• Book your tasting here
• Adults only

Optional stop: In Sao Vicente, climb the stairs at the whitewashed Chapel de Nossa Senhora de Fátima to get views of the surrounding terraced fields and ocean. (If you have a drone, this makes a cool shot.)

Day 4: Hiking and history

AT A GLANCE: Choose which hike(s) you want to do today, have lunch on the trail and peek inside one of Madeira’s traditional thatched roof houses.

Important itinerary note: For today’s itinerary, we have two different options you can choose from to do hikes of varying lengths. If you are feeling really ambitious, you could fit both options (all 3 hikes) into one long day—just start with the morning Levada do Caldeirão Verde hike in Option A and head to lunch before continuing onto hike the Levada dos Balcões hike in Option B. Then maybe only hike part of Vereda da Ponta de São Lourenço for sunset (there are excellent views from the start).

Option A)

You’ll want to leave your accommodation bright and early for this option, so be prepared with breakfast on the go. 

PR9 Levada do Caldeirão Verde hike

• Distance: 13 km (7.4 miles)
• Elevation gain: 600m (1,968 ft)
• Time: 5-6 hours
• Park here
• AllTrails notes

This unique levada trail takes you through a green paradise to reach a waterfall at the end. You’ll pass through 4 tunnels on the trail – the last 2 are the longest and shortest. If you have a child in a hiking carrier on your back, you may need to take them out in the tunnels so they don’t hit their heads

Plan to arrive by 8am so that you encounter fewer people on the return hike. There are many spots on the hike where you have to lean over the levada to allow others to pass. 

Insider Tip: Bring water and a headlamp for the tunnels. A phone flashlight works in a pinch but keeping your hands free makes it much easier to work through the tunnels.

Once finished, have coffee and a cake at the cafe near the trailhead.

PR11 Levada dos Balcões

Plan to have lunch at Snack Bar Flor da Selva*—a charming and rustic food stand where you can enjoy lunch with a view (& kind owners) on the PR11 Levada dos Balcões trail. 

Park at or around John’s Poncha (the trailhead is just around the corner) then walk about 10-15 minutes down the trail to the snack bar. We ordered the tomato soup, grilled local trout, garlic bread and homemade cake, and it was all delicious.

*Note this cafe is closed on Tuesdays, so try to adjust this itinerary to avoid that closure. 

If you’re feeling up for it, hike the entire 1.8-mile round trip to the Dos Balcões viewpoint. (See details in Option B.)

Optional stop: Ponte da Ribeira d’Ametade

This old bridge makes a nice photo op. 

Santana Old House

Pop in the historic Santana Old House (Casa típica de Santana), a traditional A-frame cottage with steep thatched roofs, once used by local farmers. Today, they are a colorful symbol of the island’s heritage.

A local owns this particular house and opens it to visitors for free, but donations are welcome. If it is not too busy, he’ll even offer you a drink of coffee liqueur.

North Mills Distillery

An award-winning distillery where they make some of the best rum on the island. 

The factory is closed during the spring when the sugar cane is being processed, but outside of that time, you can tour the factory and purchase any products in the shop. 

Note: They close at 5 p.m. on weekends and 6 p.m. on weekdays, so we recommend stopping here before dinner. 

Optional stop

Stop at Miradouro do Guindaste for sunset if it’s on your way home.

Option B)

This option allows you to have a more leisurely morning and breakfast at your accommodation before hitting the road.

PR11 Levada dos Balcões hike

• Distance: 2.9 km (1.8 miles)
• Out and back
• Elevation gain: 140m (459 ft)
• Difficulty: Easy
• Time: 1 hour
• AllTrails notes

This short, flat hike has an incredible view of the valley at the end. It is also not very crowded compared to other hikes on this itinerary. Hopefully, you’ll have better weather than we did, the view for us was completely cloudy.

Park at or around John’s Poncha, the trailhead is just around the corner. 

Lunch

In this itinerary option, you’ll have lunch at Snack Bar Flor da Selva* (a charming food stand 10 minutes into the trail)* on your way back from the hike. 

*Read the Option A lunch notes above for more info!

Optional stops:

• Ponte da Ribeira d’Ametade: this old bridge makes a nice photo op 
• Santana Old House (Casa típica de Santana): a traditional A-frame cottage, open to visitors for free
• North Mills Distillery: award-winning distillery where they make some of the best rum on the island, closes early! 

PR8 Vereda da Ponta de São Lourenço

• Distance: 6.6 km (4.1 miles)
• Out and back
• Elevation gain: 303m (994 ft)
• Time: 3-4 hours
• Park here or anywhere you can find along the road
• AllTrails notes

This is one of the (if not the) most popular hikes on the island—and for good reason! The fairly moderate trail features stunning views the entire way. Plan plenty of time for photos—you’ll want to make lots of stops.

Go 1 or 2 hours before sunset, there was plenty of parking and most of the crowds had left. It was very peaceful when we went at this time. 

There is a small fee you need to pay to do this hike. Reserve here or pay by phone once you get there. If you don’t want to hike all the way, you can turn back at any time, but we suggest at least trying to make it to this viewpoint. 

→ Be sure to read our guide to hiking in Madeira for more information about the specific route, best timing and parking. 

Day 5: Monte, Valley of Nuns & Câmara de Lobos

AT A GLANCE: Explore Monte, take the traditional toboggan ride through the streets, have lunch in Valley of Nuns and a sunset stroll in Câmara de Lobos.

Funchal Cable Car

Start your morning by taking the Funchal cable car up to Monte. This fully-enclosed gondola lift offers a unique view of the city.

Insider Tip: Once you arrive at the top, you can have a light breakfast and/or just coffee at LocalShop.

Monte Palace Gardens

A beautiful garden full of exotic plants, colorful tiles, and interesting art, this is perfect for a relaxing stroll. There’s even a Japanese section with torii gates and koi ponds.

Monte traditional toboggan (basket cart) ride

History: Farmers originally used the wicker toboggans to transport goods such as sugarcane and other produce downhill to Funchal. Over time, the practice evolved into a tourist attraction, keeping the tradition alive of the Carreiros who guide the sleds today.

Walk to the ticket booth at the starting point of the ride. Get your ticket from the booth and wait in line for the next available carreiro. (These lines can get quite long, but they move pretty fast.)

The ride takes about 10-15 minutes and is suitable for small children (we even brought our baby!). After you ride, you can walk (30 minutes) back downhill to your car. Or take a taxi (€10 – €15).

Miradouro da Eira do Serrado

Around midday, head to Miradouro da Eira do Serrado (30 min drive from the car park in Funchal), overlooking the Valley of Nuns. 

“Valley of Nuns” was named after the 16th-century nuns from the Santa Clara Convent in Funchal who sought refuge to escape from pirate attacks. 

This short walk up to the viewpoint is stunning. There were rolling clouds when we arrived and it added to the whole experience being so high up. Then drive down into the valley for lunch. 

Optional stop: If you have time after lunch, Poço dos Chefes is a nice swimming hole on the river.  

Câmara de Lobos

Head to Câmara de Lobos for the evening (30 minute drive). This town is known for amazing sunsets and as being a favorite retreat for Winston Churchill.

Take a sunset stroll along the harbor, and don’t miss the sea lion mural made with recycled materials.

Day 6: Levada hike, Ponta do Sol & Pico do Arieiro

AT A GLANCE: Start your morning with a really unique levada hike, then head to the sunniest place on the island before you visit the iconic peak for sunset.

PR7 Levada do Moinho – Levada Nova

• Distance: 10.4 km (6.5 miles)
• Elevation gain: 122m (400 ft)
  • AllTrails is incorrect
• Time: 3-4 hours
• Difficulty: Easy
• AllTrails notes

This was one of the most unique levada trails we did in Madeira, however, there is a bit of confusing information on AllTrails, so be sure to read carefully…

The trail is relatively easy and flat, following the levadas along a cliffside. A staircase connects the lower (Levada do Moinho) and upper (Levada Nova) trails, which is marked on the AllTrails map, but not shown as part of the route (the part where it connects on the map is incorrect).

The lower level (Levada do Moinho) brings you to a small waterfall and river crossing. Just before you reach the river, there is a staircase to the upper part of the trail (Levada Nova). Go right at the top of the staircase and you’ll complete the loop on the upper trail. This portion takes you past and behind the iconic double waterfall and through a long tunnel.

You will get wet/muddy. There’s a few places you’ll have to walk through water (plan to bring dry shoes in the car!)

Parking: The best parking is at Igreja da Lombada, but you may have to park farther down on the roadside if the lot is full. (We had to park a good 10 minute walk downhill from the start of the trail so it added to our distance and elevation gain.)

The starting point is directly behind the church. 

Entry fee: Be sure to purchase an online entry ticket here before you leave and screenshot it to your phone. We did see anywhere you could pay on the spot when we were there.

Post-hike snack (optional)

There is a little cafe cart called Levada Lounge in front of the church that makes a great place for grabbing a drink (fresh juices!) after your hike. There’s also public restrooms right there (but likely no toilet paper).

Ponta do Sol

After your hike, get back on the road and drive to Ponta do Sol (10 minutes). This cute town is known as the sunniest place on the island.

Parking tip: There is paid street parking, but it’s cash only, so be sure to have Euro coins with you. 

Grab lunch in town and then head to the beach and lay out or swim in the small cove if it’s a nice day. Walk across the small stone bridge for a view or take the stairs that go down into the sea for a swim.

But keep an eye on your timing, you’ll want to hit the road with plenty of time to make it to your next destination before the sunset. 

Pico do Arieiro

Madeira’s third highest peak offers breathtaking views of the surrounding peaks—and if you’re lucky, you might witness a cloud inversion, where you stand above a sea of clouds. The road brings you right up to the weather station at the top of the peak making this view accessible even to non-hikers.

The drive from Ponta do Sol to Pico do Arieiro takes about 1 hour.  And you’ll want to plan to arrive 2 hours before sunset for the best light. 

Driving tip: Google Maps will likely send you via Monte (ER103), a slightly shorter but very narrow and winding road with lots of blind corners. It’s scenic, with several pull-offs for views, but we recommend taking the alternative ER203 route instead—especially after dark. It’s only about 5 minutes longer and much wider, with no blind turns (though less scenic).

Parking:

• Parking P1 (upper lot) costs €4 per hour or €20 per day but has limited spots
• Parking P2 (lower lot) costs €5 per day and is better if you’re doing the full hike

Weather: The peak is often above the clouds, so conditions can differ from lower areas. We recommend watching the weather forecast using apps and the webcams to make sure the view at the peak is clear.

→ Be sure to read our Madeira hiking guide for more information about the hike and specific viewpoints. 

Day 7: Morning in Funchal & depart

AT A GLANCE: Have brunch and walk around Funchal before heading to the airport to drop off your rental car and fly back to the mainland.

Funchal

Pack up and make your way to Funchal for a morning of exploring.

Visit the Mercado dos Lavradores (Funchal Market), which is an indoor market built in 1940. Note that it gets super busy after 10 a.m. on Fridays & Saturdays, so plan accordingly. 

The fish market is on the lowest level and only operates until mid-day. Head upstairs for the cheapest fruit and veggies; the lower-level displays are wildly overpriced.

• Hours: opens at 7 am (closed on Sundays)

Be sure to walk through Rua de Santa Maria, a street with small shops, street art, and beautiful door displays.

Brunch

Funchal has some great brunch options to fuel up before your departure:

• Loft: Boho vibes with good food
  • What to order: Smoothie bowls, turkish eggs, and the volcano pancake, named Etna!
• Prima Caju: Sweet, savory and healthy brunch food in a cute space
  • What to order: Make-your-own smoothie bowls, eggs, homemade pancakes
• Mya Petit Cafe: Very Instagrammable food and space
• Art Food Corner Madeira: Cafe created by artists

Just make sure you give yourself enough time to drive to the airport (25 minutes from central Funchal) and drop off your rental car before your flight home (or back to mainland Portugal).

Madeira itinerary map

Want to upgrade your experience in Madeira? 

Maybe itinerary planning isn’t your thing and you’d rather have the freedom to just wing it?

If you prefer to navigate like a local rather than planning every detail yourself, this map is the perfect next step.

Have more than one week in Madeira? Here’s what to do…

If you have more time to spend on the island, here are some things we’d recommend looking into…

1. Blandy’s Wine Lodge

This former convent-turned winery is the best place in Funchal to try local Madeira Wine (fortified wine). They have dry and sweet variations. 

There’s also a wine library they call the “Harry Potter room” because it looks just like the library in HP, but with wine instead of books. 

2. See sunset above the clouds

Bica da Cana is a hidden gem with far fewer people than other more popular viewpoints. 

3. More hiking

PR17 Pinaculo e Folhadal is an off-the-beaten path trail with fewer crowds than many other hikes on the island. It is challenging and takes a good chunk of time, so be sure you’re prepared.

4. Whale and dolphin watching tour

Hop aboard a fast, small-group boat with Blue Safari Madeira for a two-hour wildlife adventure. 
Everything is done responsibly — no chasing or feeding — guided by marine biologists and supported by local spotters on land. You’ll have a great chance to see whales, dolphins, sea turtles, and seabirds, and by joining you also help with ongoing research and conservation efforts.

5. Have an unforgettable meal in Funchal

This city has some really wonderful restaurants, many of which need advanced reservations. If you have a the budget for a splurge, here are some restaurants that are on our personal list:

• Horta Restaurant: incredible architecture and food
• Akua: all around excellent choice for a nice meal in Funchal
• Restaurante Desarma: tasting menu that many guests rave is the “best meal of their life”

6. Afternoon tea

Treat yourself to afternoon tea at Reid’s Palace, where you can sip tea and sample delicious pastries and finger foods while gazing out over the Atlantic. 

Flying to Madeira

There are flights all day to Madeira from both Lisbon and Porto. We recommend doing a midday flight so you aren’t rushed but have enough time to stock up on groceries and do a little exploring once you land. 

It’s also worth noting that the flights to Madeira can sometimes be delayed due to challenging weather conditions. For this reason, we don’t recommend an evening flight.

Rental car

This itinerary is set up to be done with a rental car. We highly recommend getting an automatic vehicle (even if you know how to drive manual). The roads in Madeira are something else—steep, winding, intersections on hills, crazy tight parking garages!
