Mountainbiking

This tour offers a less physical and less technical mountain biking experience, perfect for beginners, yet still an exciting way to explore Madeira. After a short briefing with helpful tips about the tour and bike handling, the adventure begins at Poiso (altitude 1400m) with a gentle uphill section. Shortly after, and depending on the riders’ skills, the guide may suggest trying some easy single trails or continuing on the comfortable mix of road and dirt paths until reaching the levada at 850m. From here, the journey becomes a relaxed 20km ride along the levada, surrounded by stunning laurel, eucalyptus, and pine forests. Near the village of Camacha, there’s a refreshing break for a cold drink and light lunch at a charming local bar.

After the stop, the route continues along the levada as it winds through the colorful village of Camacha, offering scenic views and local charm. The final stretch is an enjoyable 10km smooth road descent all the way back to the Lokoloko shop, requiring little more effort than keeping fingers on the brakes while enjoying sweeping views over the ocean. The tour can always be adapted or personalized by the guides to ensure the best possible experience for every group.
