Madeira is a Portuguese island group and autonomous region in the Atlantic Ocean, about 670 km west of the coast of Morocco and 1000 km southwest of Lisbon.\u00a0It consists of two larger, inhabited islands, Madeira and Porto Santo, and two uninhabited groups of rocky islets, Desertas and Selvagens.\u00a0Due to its geographical position (near the Tropic of Cancer), the climatic conditions on the islands are similar throughout the year, mostly spring, which is why Madeira was named the \u2018island of eternal spring\u2019. The island is rich in greenery and generally lush vegetation, and the unique laurel forest is under UNESCO protection. The island is not large, it is about twice as big as our Cres and\/or Krk, it is mostly hilly (the highest peak Pico Ruivo reaches up to 1862m), and it is intersected by many hiking and mountain trails, where the trails that accompany irrigation channels, the so-called levade, stand out. For this reason, the island is very interesting for hikers and other lovers of active life. On the economic side, the island mostly relies on tourism, agriculture and viticulture, so lovers of food and drink will also come to their own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In August 2024, Madeira was devastated by a fire that destroyed vast amounts of forest. In addition to forests and vegetation in general, some of the infrastructure was damaged, so some of the hiking trails are still closed for rehabilitation. Whoever has visited Madeira in the last year and a half has been deprived of the most attractive hiking trails. But if it is to trust the local self-government (and there is no reason not to trust them), this summer everything should return to normal. Accordingly, we will pass these extremely attractive paths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On this tour we take you through spectacular landscapes; green levadas, dramatic mountain ridges, foggy laurel forests and gazebos above the Atlantic Ocean. We will also explore hidden paths, authentic villages and untouched nature that classical tourism often bypasses. We will also visit some of the island's most beautiful beaches and natural pools, and at the end of each day we will enjoy the rich gastronomic offer of Madeira - from fresh fish and seafood, traditional dishes such as espetade and bolo to caco bread, to local wines (must try their most famous wine - Madeira) and desserts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Otkad je ukinuta direktna linija iz Be\u010da, nema nekih idealnih letova, pa tako nije ni na\u0161. Presjedanje je u Amsterdamu gdje imamo veliki razmak izme\u0111u dva leta (7 i pol sati). Tu imamo mogu\u0107nost iza\u0107i sa aerodroma i provesti nekoliko sati u obilasku Amsterdama. Nakon \u0161to sletimo u glavni grad Madeire, Funchal, \u00a0rentamo kombi i idemo prema na\u0161em smje\u0161taju. \u00a0No, usput prvo odlazimo do vidikovca s kojeg nam se pru\u017eaju veli\u010danstveni pogledi na cijeli otok. Planine, doline, obala i more. Nakon toga nam slijedi dolazak u smje\u0161taj, opu\u0161tanje, kupanje i ve\u010dera.\u00a0<\/p>\n Ustajanje i doru\u010dak. Za prvi izlet na otoku idemo posjetiti magi\u010dnu i misti\u010dnu \u0161umu \u2013 Fanal Forest. Specifi\u010dna zbog stabala koja datiraju iz doba prije otkrivanja otoka, rasko\u0161nih kro\u0161nji i neobi\u010dnih oblika. Kru\u017ena staza nas vodi kroz svijet slapova, potoka i obilje zelenila. Savr\u0161eno za prvi kontakt s prirodom otoka. Zatim se vra\u0107amo do smje\u0161taja i imamo dovoljno vremena za kupanje ili neke druge dodatne aktivnosti po dogovoru. Ve\u010dera i spavanje.<\/p>\n Ustajanje i doru\u010dak. Danas hodamo po jednoj od nezaobilaznih staza na otoku - Levada de 25 Fontes. Ime je dobila po jezercu u koje se ulijeva to\u010dno 25 malih slapova i izvora koji izbijaju iz stijene prekrivene bujnom vegetacijom. S razlogom je jedna od najpopularnijih staza, no mi hodamo izmjenjenom rutom kako bi izbjegli gu\u017eve i posjetili skrivene atrakcije, ali i glavnu atrakciju naravno. Na ovoj stazi \u0107e nas do\u010dekati mno\u0161tvo slapova visine i do 100m, prekrasni vidikovci i kupanje za hrabre. Nakon \u0161to nas ovdje priroda izuje iz cipela ponovno odlazimo do smje\u0161taja. Ve\u010dera i spavanje.<\/p>\n Ne\u0161to kasnije ustajanje i doru\u010dak jer danas je dan predodre\u0111en za spektakl. Odlazimo u najvi\u0161e predjele otoka i posje\u0107ujemo dva najvi\u0161a vrha otoka. Pico Areeiro (1818m) i Pico Ruivo (1862m). Staza nas vodi kroz dramati\u010dan krajolik koji ostavlja bez daha. Strme litice, vulkanske stijene, more, \u0161etnja iznad oblaka\u2026ovdje \u0107e foto session biti svakih 100m \ud83d\ude0a. Kao vrhunac dana\u0161nje avanture ostajemo na najvi\u0161em vrhu i u\u017eivamo u zalasku sunca. Nakon \u0161to ispucamo\u00a0svu memoriju na mobitelima spu\u0161tamo se s vrha dobro ure\u0111enom stazom i odlazimo na finu ve\u010deru i spavanje.<\/p>\n Ustajanje i doru\u010dak. Danas se ponovno vra\u0107amo u najvi\u0161e planine jer nam nije bilo dosta dan ranije. Nastavljamo gdje smo stali ju\u010der (Pico Ruivo), ali ovoga puta hodamo transverzalu po grebenu i u\u017eivamo u pogledima na sve strane. Nakon spu\u0161tanja s grebena vra\u0107amo se u smje\u0161taj. Ve\u010dera i spavanje.<\/p>\n Ustajanje i doru\u010dak. Danas obilazimo isto\u010dni dio otoka. Cilj nam je obi\u0107i stazu du\u017eine otprilike 9km koja vodi uz samu obalu. Sa staze se pru\u017eaju nezaboravni pogledi na strme litice otoka dok se valovi razbijaju u stijene. Nakon hodanja po liticama vozimo se do glavnog grada Funchal. Ostatak dana iskoristit \u0107emo za obilazak grada, tropskog vrta,\u00a0lokalne tr\u017enice sa doma\u0107im proizvodima, ispijanje kava, koktela i degustaciju\u00a0ostalih oto\u010dnih delikatesa, te ve\u010deru. Nakon toga\u00a0se vra\u0107amo do smje\u0161taja i odlazimo na spavanje.<\/p>\n Ustajanje i doru\u010dak. Danas se ponovno vra\u0107amo u bujno zelenilo u unutra\u0161njosti otoka. Na rasporedu nam je jo\u0161 jedna levada - \u00a0Levada do Caldeir\u00e3o Verde. Planinarska staza koja slijedi vodotoke do jednog od najvi\u0161ih slapova na otoku. Na putu do cilja \u0107emo pro\u0107i i kroz par uskih tunela koji podi\u017eu do\u017eivljaj ove avanture. Nazad se vra\u0107amo istim putem do parkinga otkuda smo i krenuli. Vozimo se nazad u smje\u0161taj, pla\u017ea, ve\u010dera i spavanje.<\/p>\n Ustajanje i doru\u010dak. Spremamo stvari, odlazimo na aerodrom, vra\u0107amo kombi, \u010dekiramo karte i u 10:30 polije\u0107emo, prvo prema Amsterdamu, a odatle za Zagreb gdje bi trebali sti\u0107i u 22:40.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","popis_stvari_koje_bi_dobro_imati_sa_sobom":"\n
