An island of volcanic origin, the many eruptions have shaped Madeira's landscape: the peaks, or picos in Portuguese, are numerous and rise to an altitude of 1840 metres in the heart of the island. There's nothing like it to get a good view of the island through its green valleys while being above the clouds! Among the most famous peaks: Pico Ruivo, the highest point of the island, Pico do Arieiro, very close to Funchal, or Pico das Torres. Most of these peaks can be explored on foot, and through paths and sometimes even tunnels, you will discover the most beautiful views of the island.
There are also many cliffs and other mountains that are a must-see: Cabo Girao, one of the highest cliffs in Europe, or in the north of the island, the Eagle Rock : Penha de Aguia, one of the most imposing volcanic mounds!
