Webcam in Pico do Arieiro, Madeira Island.

Pico do Arieiro is the third highest peak of Madeira Islands archipelago with an altitude of 1818 m. The footpath towards Pico Ruivo (to the North) is a popular and important tourist attraction with an average of 1000 tourists trekking on it per day. There is also an easy access road with a large car park, restaurant and souvenir shop.

From the top and with a good weather you get a magnificent view of Porto Santo, located 30 nautical miles North. When weather permits the south coast, Curral das Freiras and even Porto Santo can be seen from here.

On the way to Pico do Arieiro one can admire a unique stone-built pit (looks like a huge igloo) known as “Poço da Neve” built by an English family who once used to store ice, snow and hail from the mountains.
