She Hikes Adventures
Operated by Intrepid Travel
Madeira 2027 🇵🇹🥾
1st–5th April 2027 | 5 Days • 4 Nights
Join She Hikes for an unforgettable women’s group adventure to the beautiful island of Madeira!
Five days of incredible hiking, dramatic coastline, waterfalls, local food, culture and plenty of time to experience Madeira together – with the organisation taken care of for you.
We’ll be based at the beautiful 4-star Hotel Splendida, with an English-speaking tour leader, group airport transfers, transport for our included activities, selected meals and a brilliant itinerary combining some of Madeira’s best walks with local experiences.
And the best bit? You absolutely don’t need anyone to come with. This is a She Hikes adventure, so coming solo is very much encouraged!
The Adventure 🥾
Arrive in beautiful Madeira and transfer to the 4* Hotel Splendida, where we’ll be based for the next four nights.
We’ll meet the rest of the group for our welcome meeting before heading out for dinner together – the perfect chance to get to know everyone and get excited for the adventure ahead!
Time for our first hike!
We’ll walk the spectacular Ponta de São Lourenço peninsula on the eastern tip of Madeira. Expect dramatic volcanic landscapes, rugged coastline and incredible views across the Atlantic on this approximately 8km hike.
Afterwards, we’ll enjoy a picnic before visiting a historic distillery for a taste of traditional Madeira rum, followed by a stop at a beautiful coastal viewpoint before returning to Funchal.
Today is all about experiencing Madeira’s capital -and some of its food!
We’ll explore Funchal’s old town with a local guide, visit the colourful Mercado dos Lavradores and sample local flavours and specialities along the way.
Afterwards, you’ll have some free time to explore Funchal at your own pace – perhaps take the cable car, take the wicker toboggan run, visit the Botanical Gardens or simply find somewhere lovely for a drink and soak up the atmosphere.
Our second big hiking day takes us onto one of Madeira’s famous levadas.
We’ll hike approximately 10km along the stunning Levada do Moinho, following the historic irrigation channel through lush vegetation, beautiful valleys and waterfalls.
After the walk, we’ll head back to our hotel, with the rest of the day free to relax or enjoy a final bit of exploring.
After breakfast, we’ll check out of our hotel and transfer together to Funchal Airport for our journey home – hopefully with some incredible memories and a whole bunch of new friends. ❤️
