PR11 Levada dos Balcões is a stunningly beautiful family-friendly trail on the island of Madeira. The beautiful Laurissilva Forest awaits hikers when they reach the iconic Balcões Viewpoint at the end of the gentle one-way 1.5 km route. Along the way, one can observe the Fajã da Nogueira Hydroelectric Power Station and feed the rainbow trout that have been brought to repopulate Madeira's waterways. Visitors shouldn't be deterred by the increasing number of tour buses in the area – make sure you start early before the rush or after 5 pm to enjoy this undemanding but rewarding hike in all its natural glory!

Before driving there check the official website to verify if the trail is open or closed. This information is reliable and ensures a safe hiking experience.

If you haven’t rented a car, you can book a private transfer through this link.

IMPORTANT: Starting November 2024, this trail will require advance booking and a 3€ fee to support Madeira’s ecosystem. The funds will go toward conservation, trail maintenance, and sustainable tourism efforts. To reserve your visit, please follow this link.
