More... more... this was just the best way to spend a freezing cold morning, walking virtually with you and listening to some interesting facts about this lovely place.
I hope you enjoy this narrated walking tour of Funchal's local Levada - Dos Piornais. This narrated walk shows you how to get to Levada Dos Piornais from Funchal Lido area and takes an hour long walk along it. Do drop by with thoughts and comments, I always enjoy hearing from you.
Very interesting walk. What a beautiful place. One thing I have to say about North Idaho, there are many wonderful hikes. We have to watch out for Bear, Mountain Lions, Wolves and Moose. But, we always carry Bear spray.
Bear, Mountain Lions, Wolves and Moose... good heavens, well it was as much as we could find to see the odd lizard. How terrifying but thrilling that sounds.

Hi, thanks so much for this great Lavada Dos Piornais walk, so much variety and great views all the way along. Thanks also for the commentary (and the quiet spells of ambient sounds 👍). A perfect day out. You had asked in a previous reply if we had a favourite Funchal restaurant - no, we never developed a special favourite, we were always trying something different. Thanks again, I enjoyed this a lot 😃. All the best, Don 🙋♂️ !!
Hi Don, we thought we'd try out the odd narrated film, just to see how it felt. It was rather enjoyable chatting to myself I have to say. Be good to hear your Scottish tones one of these days.
Realmente é um passeio a pé imperdível , a cada quilômetro uma vista linda e diferente para ser apreciada, principalmente a vista magnífica desse lindíssimo mar, quando eu for a Madeira com certeza farei esse incrível passeio
Concordamos, é lindo passear pelas Levadas, e essa nem é a mais bonita, tem outras bem mais espetaculares. Eu sei que você vai apreciá-los quando você visitar.
I can't thank You enough for sharing thissssss. I feel like going walking beside You. Sooooooo Nice And it is impressive how You had topics for an hour non-stop 🤣. I really enjoyed it (and envy You a bit).
Good morning Nandasarthou, well you are more than welcome. I'm not known for being a chatty chap, but being on the Levada did seem to bring it out of me! Hope to bring you many more walks alongside us. It's good to know you're enjoying them.
I just want to say wow. this is some great editing.Being around you is like being on a happy little vacation. Congratulations on such an amazing achievement, Good job...
Thanks for visiting Chris, I'm pleased you enjoyed having the narration, it's good to gave feedback, I certainly hope to bring many more to you door. All the best to you.
Lovely to see a walk we plan to do on our next visiting to the beautiful island of Madeira. We should have been there next week, but for pandemic reasons it's not going to happen 😞. Next year 😃. Thank you for all your videos.
Good morning Mark, well you are most welcome. So sorry you didn't make it this time round. I do hope to bring you many more walks alongside us until you can be there for real next year.
This is a nice walk from town to country to hamlet.. We did this recently but continued the piornais levada up to the small tunnels where a pair of 70+ swedes dared to go where we were a bit afraid of unsecured hights.
That's a great and informative video. Definitely try this if and when I next visit. Would be good to walk this one way and return on the Praia Formosa beachfront.
Lovely walk, thanks for the effort. We are going to Madeira (Camara de Lobos) for two months this summer, but from what I can see, the island has become severely overbuilt and commerciallised since I was last there about 12 years ago. BTW, I haved lived in Portugal (East Algarve) for 20 years now in the "Camara" de Castro Marim. "Camara" equates to a Portuguese local authority, the level of Government that collects all the taxes. BTW, how many kilometres was that walk?
Pleased you enjoyed it Michael, the walk is approximately 10km. The Sao Martinho area we walk through here is very built up for sure, but I'd say that's the worst of the over development and I'm sure you'd still find much of the island beautiful and peaceful. Perhaps some of our walks here will give you a better idea, we do have over 100 of them in Madeira. Thanks for dropping by.
@@LivingWalks Thanks for the prompt reply - I will try to watch as many of your walks in Madeira as possible. Interesting that the Dos Piornais walk is 10km when the coastal walk from Funchal to Camara de Lobos is only 5km (if the tunnel is open). Shows you how the lavadas meander around the valleys. OK, last month I flew to Menorca and took two weeks to walk the spectacular Cami de Cavalls (GR223) around the island. Have you done this yourself? Highly recommended but the best time to go is about right now, no later.
your best video to date..levada dos piornais,,, thank you for showing my lovely homeland,,, here in England we have problems with the french,, about curved bananas too,,,lol,, a bit of Portuguese language may help with lower cafe and food prices..the tourist trap..need to escape it ..
Good morning Jose, how nice to receive your lovely message. You certainly do have a lovely homeland, you must miss it very much. We have only been back in England for 2 days and we miss it very much already. We do very much hope to know more Portuguese next time we go for sure.
What a perfect way to spend an hour, listening to your lovely voice and walking the lavada... just perfect.
Happy you thought so RBS, very happy to bring it to your door.
More... more... this was just the best way to spend a freezing cold morning, walking virtually with you and listening to some interesting facts about this lovely place.
Hello there MA, well pleased to oblige, perhaps someday we'll walk it together.
Loved the entire video, just a marvelous way to spend the morning. Thank you for sharing.

Another brilliant walk. Seems to me you are where you want to be. I do hope so.
Hello there RR, good of you to drop by and connect. Well I must admit we've rather fallen in love with the island, have you been?
@@LivingWalks The island is a pearl in the Atlantic. Thank you for showing it to us in such detail.
This is perfection. Really into it. Thank you so much for making it! : )

Very Nice Video L.W..😎🍁🍻
Thanks for the visit John. So glad you enjoyed the walk with us.
That's a great and informative video. Definitely try this if and when I next visit. Would be good to walk this one way and return on the Praia Formosa beachfront.
Hiya Paul, yes that'd be a perfect walk, with a little stop for a Nikita on the way!
@@LivingWalks Absolutely or do it the other way round and pay a visit to Vaca Negra just up the road from where you started!
god thank you home swett home Madeira
Hope this brings back happy memories of your lovely island.
