Miradouro do Pico do Areeiro

Miradouro do Pico do Areeiro is one of Madeira’s highest and most iconic viewpoints, perched at 1,818 meters above sea level, with jaw-dropping views above the clouds and access to the famous Pico do Areeiro to Pico Ruivo hike. As it’s a very popular sunrise spot, parking near the viewpoint fills up quickly—you may need to leave your car further down the road and walk uphill, so plan to arrive early or be prepared for a short hike to the top.
