With Funchal as reference:
Starting at the picnic area of Caldeira, this track follows the first 800m of the Rabaçal walk (Levada das 25 fontes). Once you arrive at the tunnel, go right, it is advisable that you dismount and transport your bike by hand until you reach the trail visible on your right.
The track is fluid with a few pedalling areas and some wooden steps. Beware when passing the tube that transports water from the plateau to the hydroelectric power station of Calheta. On rainy days this spot is very dangerous.
The single track ends near the Levadeiros house, at the Levada da Rocha Vermelha, follow the dirt road ahead until Lombo do Atouguia.
