Description by the author

Levada dos Maroços es una bonita y sencilla ruta de senderismo por una levada en el valle de Machico, la segunda ciudad más grande de la isla de Madeira, al este de la capital, Funchal.

Una levada es un estrecho canal de riego construido específicamente en la isla portuguesa de Madeira para transportar agua desde las montañas húmedas y lluviosas del noroeste hasta las zonas agrícolas más secas y soleadas del sur y el sureste.

Machico tiene importancia histórica porque fue la primera ciudad descubierta en 1419 por los navegantes portugueses Tristão Vaz Teixeira y João Gonçalves Zarco. Los valles laterales de la «Ribeira de Machico» son especialmente pintorescos en primavera, cuando florecen las acacias.
