    At the bottom of Machico valley, also known as the Mimosa valley, we walk along the Maroços levada. We enjoy a selected 6km stretch of beauty and typical agricultural fields of Madeira with the famous terraces. It is a very special walk with magnificent views over the Bay of Machico, where the Portuguese navigators made their first visit to the island of Madeira.
