Levada dos Maroços is an easy and flat hike through Levada, also known as the Mimosa Valley due to the abundance of Mimosa trees. It is a half-day hike that takes us along the Machico Valley, more specifically through the Maroços area
.On this tour we can discover the interior of the parish, which is an excellent example of life in the rural outskirts of Machico.
This levada was built to irrigate the surrounding farmland. The water is collected in several streams and tributaries that
cross the Levada.Along the way, we are faced with beautiful views over the fantastic Machico Bay. We can also observe the traditional terraces so typical of the Madeiran agricultural landscape. We might be lucky enough to sample some fresh fruit that farmers sell along the Levada
.This is a perfect tour to discover a little more about Madeira's culture and traditions.
