Levada Ribeira Janela

Galhano, Paúl da Serra

This trail, which can be referred to as both a footpath and a levada trail, commences at Galhano in Paúl da Serra and should not be mistaken for the PR15 Ribeira da Janela trail. The steep descent on Galhano's path is the starting point for finding the levada da Ribeira da Janela. A stunning hike, but most of it is unprotected, with a few tunnels with water inside.
