Nuns Valley Excursion

Curral das Freiras, or the Nuns' Valley, is a remarkable destination in Madeira, offering a hiking route through stunning natural landscapes.

Nuns Valley Excursion

We will pick you up from your hotel in Funchal at the scheduled time and head to the Picos dos Barcelos viewpoint for a brief stop to take in the panoramic views of the city.

Next, we will proceed to Curral das Freiras, a small village in the Nuns' Valley. This location gained its name after nuns sought refuge from pirates in 1566, surrounded by rugged peaks.

The route continues to the Eira do Serrado viewpoint, where we will spend 30 minutes admiring the stunning views of the Nuns Valley. The lush hills and whitewashed houses create a picturesque scene.

After enjoying the views, we will return to Curral das Freiras and take a minibus back to Funchal, with the entire excursion lasting approximately 4 hours.
