点评:Fabulous hike with breathtaking views! However, this is a tough hike, only around 5 miles but equivalent to climbing a 163 storey building! We are a very fit couple 63/56 but found it very tough, especially thinking about the 3+ hours on the return to our car at Pico Areeiro, but here’s the good news that no one seems to mention…….you CAN go one way!
Once you’ve completed the epic hike from Pico Arieiro to Pico Ruivo, and you definitely should(!), you can then wimp out and take route 1.2 to Acharda do Teixeira, about 1.5 miles and an easy, level 30 mins walk, where there is a cafe and car park and TAXIS! They will take you back to get your car at Pico Arieiro, but be warned, it’s about €30 each (less if more than 2 of you so look around for another knackered couple and car share!) and about 50 mins drive, but you can justifiably claim to have completed the toughest hike in Madeira, AND still get back to the hotel pool for Happy Hour!
翻译:很棒的徒步旅行,景色令人叹为观止!然而,这是一次艰难的徒步旅行,只有大约 5 英里,但相当于爬上 163 层楼!我们是一对非常健康的夫妇,身高 63/56,但觉得非常艰难,尤其是考虑到返回 Pico Areeiro 的车时要花 3 个多小时,但好消息是似乎没有人提到……你可以单程走!
一旦你完成了从 Pico Arieiro 到 Pico Ruivo 的史诗般的徒步旅行,你绝对应该这样做 (!),然后你可以放轻松,走 1.2 号路线到 Acharda do Teixeira,大约 1.5 英里,轻松平坦的步行 30 分钟,那里有一家咖啡馆、停车场和出租车!他们会带您回到 Pico Arieiro 取车,但请注意,每人费用约为 30 欧元(如果超过 2 人则费用会更少,所以请寻找另一对疲惫不堪的夫妇和您拼车!),车程约 50 分钟,但您可以理直气壮地说自己已经完成了马德拉最艰难的徒步旅行,并且仍然可以回到酒店泳池享受欢乐时光!
