Madeira Ativa › Levada trails › Which Madeira trails charge a fee?
9 of Madeira's 44 marked trails charge an entry fee; the other 35 are free. The published charges are 10.50 EUR, 3 EUR, 3.00 EUR, 4.5 EUR. The fee is per person per trail and is paid at the trailhead or online in advance — it is a conservation charge for the busiest routes, not a parking fee, so having driven there does not cover it.
