LEVADAWANDERUNG QUEIMADAS - CALDEIRÃO VERDE

The levada of Caldeirão Verde is a moderately difficult 13-kilometer walk. This walk which starts and ends in the Queimadas forest park in the municipality of Santana, takes us to an enchanted forest where we discover at every turn the abundant biodiversity, present in the flora and fauna of the Laurissilva forest, a UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site. It is, without doubt, one of the routes where water, the source of life, is present along the tunnels, rocks and streams which take us to Caldeirão Verde, known for its lagoon and impressive waterfall. Along the way, you can also see the small villages of Santana, Ilha and São Jorge.
