The island of Madeira has got the most extensive and preserved Laurissilva forest in the world, with an area of around 15,000 hectares.
It is a World Natural Heritage Site, classified by UNESCO in 1999 and our mission is aligned with the principles of that organization and consists of:
- dissemination – through hiking programs and knowledge of its species;
- in conservation and preservation - not interfering with existing habitats and minimizing our ecological footprint by not leaving any type of waste in nature.
We are part of those who intend to leave a legacy for future generations to enjoy it in the same way.
LEVADAS - The irrigation canals in Madeira Island
LEVADAS - The irrigation canals in Madeira Island
The island has a network of canals that irrigate its entire territory, covering a length of around 3.100 km.
Its construction dates back to the 15th century, the date of its settlement. Around 1,500 km are passable, making them a strong tourist resource for the region.
- Note: Since 2026, it has only been possible to travel along the levadas with prior booking through an agency. If you are traveling independently, you will be subject to waiting times and availability at the start of each route, depending on the area's capacity.
