Description of this place: The Levada do Alecrim is a beautiful and relatively gentle levada walk that takes you through the stunning landscapes of the Rabaçal area. The trail follows the contours of the mountain, offering breathtaking views of the valleys, mountains, and sometimes even glimpses of the ocean. It often leads to several small waterfalls and lagoons, including the picturesque Lagoa da Dona Beja. It's a fantastic option for those seeking a less strenuous but equally rewarding levada experience, immersing you in Madeira's lush nature.
