At an altitude of 1095 metres, the Eira do Serrado Viewpoint offers an unobstructed view of the parish of Curral das Freiras, surrounded by the grandeur of Madeira's characteristic green mountains.
Located in the mountainous interior of the municipality of Câmara de Lobos, we are in the heart of the island. You can access this viewpoint via a footpath that begins next to Estalagem da Eira do Serrado. After the ascent, visitors are rewarded with a breathtaking scenery, where the spotlight is stolen by the sumptuousness of Madeira's central massif.
It is an excellent place to observe and appreciate the erosive effect of the natural elements that have shaped the island over the centuries. Therefore, contemplating this mountain massif is having the opportunity to travel through the thousand-year-old history of this territory suspended in the Atlantic.
On a flat area of this valley of monumental proportions lies the town of Curral das Freiras, whose picturesque profile lends a special charm to the mountainous landscape. As you would expect, the Eira do Serrado Viewpoint has become one of the most iconic tourist spots on the island of Madeira.
