PR6.3 – Vereda da Lagoa do Vento
This levada ends with an impressive azure blue lake where the waterfalls drops. Nice to finish with a plundge!
👶 Family Score: 7.5 / 10
“Paths are wide but it includes a long descent by stairs, so less suitable for very young kids”
🥾 Solo / Couple Score: 8.0 / 10
“A great alternative to the 25 Fontes levada with the same starting point”
What to Expect on the Trail
You will follow the same trail as PR 6.2 – Levada do Alecrim. After a while you’ll find a sign to left where the stairs lead you to an incredible lake.
Safety
Paths are wide but the longs stairs can be challenging and slippery.
Parking & Logistics
Parking at Rabaçal is always a challenge as it’s the starting point of 5 PR trails, so arrive on time (prefarably before 9AM). After the lake you can return via the Rabaçal Nature Spot Cafe and take the shuttle back. Book your slot here.
