Description

Join me on this fun, 2-day scrambling adventure and discover Madeira’s gorgeous landscapes.

Scrambling is an activity that lies between hiking and rock climbing. We won’t use ropes, but we will use our hands for climbing when necessary. This trip is the perfect thrill and challenge for an experienced hiker with good physical fitness.

On the first day, we’ll trek along the breathtaking Encumeada Pass, and the following day will be spent ascending the second highest peak in Madeira, Pico das Torres (1852m). It’s a rocky, dramatic peak, and even more impressive than the mountain itself are the spectacular panoramic views we’ll enjoy at the top.

We’ll spend 2-6 hours hiking per day, and spend one night in a shelter. The trip won’t be cancelled if it rains.

Book now, and you’re guaranteed to have a blast discovering two of Madeira’s most stunning places.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
