No visit to Madeira Island is complete without a hair-raising ride on a Monte Sledge. The Monte toboggan ride is an exhilarating 2- kilometer journey, reaching speeds of up to 30 kilometers per hour! This thrilling experience takes you down a steep hill with winding roads, adding an extra element of excitement. Two men wearing rubber-soled boots will guide the toboggans along the route, ensuring both safety and fun. The ride ends in Livramento, a suburb of Funchal.

At the finishing point, you can purchase a photograph taken during your ride, and there is also a souvenir shop, bar, and restroom available. Additionally, taxi (Fixed price 10 Euro) and bus services are available from Livramento back to Funchal, making it easy to return to the city. This quirky adventure is one of the best things to do in Madeira for those seeking a unique experience. Please note that the sledges may not operate in bad weather (rain) for safety reasons.
