Miradouro do Pico do Areeiro
It is the second-highest peak on the island of Madeira, with an altitude of 1818 meters. It offers a magnificent view and, when the weather is good, you can see the neighboring island of Porto Santo. It has an inn, a restaurant and a souvenir shop and is one of the most visited peaks on the island due to good access and the trails that connect it to Pico das Torres and Pico Ruivo, which are very well-prepared and signposted.
