• Fanal Forest

The highly popular and mystical Fanal Forest is part of the municipality of Porto Moniz, between the Ribeira da Janela mountain and the Paul da Serra plateau. The vast forest area is part of the indigenous Laurissilva forest, offering beautiful ‘levadas’ that starts here including the PR13 Vereda do Fanal, and the PR14 Levada dos Cedros. Access the forest via a road leading south from Ribeira da Janela, between Porto Moniz and Seixal.
