PR 1.2 Vereda do Pico Ruivo is one of Madeira’s most important mountain hiking trails, providing access to Pico Ruivo, the highest peak on the island at 1,862 meters above sea level. The trail connects high-altitude mountain areas with the summit and offers a direct immersion into Madeira’s rugged interior landscape. PR 1.2 is often used either as a standalone ascent or as a key link within longer high-mountain routes.
