What a WEIRD place!

- Before we even left England I was adamant that we NEEDED to walk along the Levada das 25 Fontes (Levada of the 25 Springs) in Madeira and I think we're both happy we did! It was a WILD start to the day with incredible wind and rain but by the time we reached the waterfall the sun was shining. All in all a beautiful magical walk and we loved every minute of it!
Thanks so much for watching, folks 😊

Beautiful places and very beautiful shots, good video friends.
I went to Madeira often with various members of my family for decades - when the airport was a nightmare to land on! I loved it, the scenery and the people were amazing - the levadas where breathtaking - thank you so much for taking us along with you, you brought back some fantastic memories for me.
What a wonderful walk and scenery. As for narrow walkways and sheer drops, rather you than me -- that's two videos so far! 😲
It's a shame with the over-tourism, like most places these days, I guess they'll just have to start issuing passes and limiting numbers 😥
Bloody brilliant. Thanks for bringing back more memories, cant wait for the next one! Still makes us chuckle to think we missed you in Madeira by a couple of days !!
Beautiful scenery, a great island, all the people must think so too
This looks an amazing place, wow, apart from all the crowds, thank you mate 😊
Great video! Madeira is beautiful! The scenery is awesome, water flowing everywhere, and the paths are so narrow. It's a wonder people can pass by. My wife and I stopped in at Funchal for a day on our way back from the Canary Islands. Never realized it was so beautiful. Keep the videos coming and a superb job videotaping the entire hike.
What a fantastic walk and place , thanks for taking us along with you both : amazing waterfalls, very busy !!!!
Loved watching reminded me of my 2 visits to Madeira 28 years ago .I spent the whole day on Levada walk , a group of 8 and guide it was awesome but intense heat .But places to swim and stay cool glad you enjoy in 2024 ❤
The Chill lofi Cafe music opening was wonderful. Love this style of vlog hiking adventure.
I agree, very Aira Force in places.
Gorgeous. It’s like it’s out of a fairy tale. Please explore more ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for sharing the video! Beautiful scenery. LOVED IT!
The cows on the narrow road was crazy lol I LOVE the way you humorously pronounce "van" !! 🤣 makes me chuckle.
definitely protective glasses needed in that wind. i would get so much grit in my eyes. i have had too many red eyes and infections due to the bad weather. so protective glasses is a must in that weather
These island adventures are soooo awesome!! Thanks for sharing! Love from the USA!
Great videos on Madeira pal. Did these walks last year in the sun and didn’t complete the first walk you filmed due to the heat. Love Madeira. A must for us is
VEREDA DA PONTA DE SÃO LOURENÇO
Then get the fishing boat taxi back. Stunning. All the best and enjoy.
Wish you’d have taken your camera Glenn! Those gnarly trees were absolutely beautiful! So atmospheric! Great video! ❤
Another wonderful Sunday trek, thanks for sharing. My knees were protesting at my enthusiasm they know my previous hx.😅
You'd make a great location scout for feature films with all these wonderful treks. Dina is a delight, too!
I did the same walk in almost identical weather in March but actually it added to the atmosphere and the waterfalls were more spectacular. Like you, the only down side is just the sheer volume of people which does detract a little from the experience. I subsequently walked some of the lesser known Levadas which were much less touristy. Great to see you in Ponta Do Sol 😀
Perfect way to start the week! Thanks you two!
Husband and I did a lavada walk,but an easy one...was beautiful and warm weather.
Just watching this as the storm rolls over preston. Really adding to the atmosphere.
What a beautiful place 🎉. Thanks for taking us along.
It's a wonder you and Dina did not brain yourselves. It was such a great video I wondered how I avoided braining myself. You asked IF we wanted to see more of these wonderful videos from Madeira? YES, absolutely YES.
Great to finally see something of your Madeiran adventures! Spectacular scenery and so nice to see, as we were denied our first holiday to Madeira last spring due to my late wife being diagnosed with cancer just before we were supposed to travel. Always wanted to go, so it was a massive disappointment obviously but nice to see something of it in your videos. I am bit shocked of the amount of people everywhere though, I'm not sure I would like this either and could potentially put me off if I'm honest - what a shame? But that said same for many beautiful locations around the world I guess and the FB and IG world we live in isn't helping I suppose in that sense? But is helping people see these locations from their armchairs without having to leave the house - but I would prefer to it being as was without the exposure it now has, but ho-hum. I'm sure you guys agree (double edge sword as you wouldn't have your channel). Glad you had waterproof footwear on this time - the amount of videos you have posted where you have got this wrong tut tut, ha ha! I wear my high walking boots on ALL walks they serve me well and offer great ankle support unlike and dry feet all the time unlike approach shoes - which are essentially regular trainers marketed differently (well sort of ha ha. Still get wet feet if they are waterproof due to low ankle height). Poor Dina copping the flack being small - shame on you BC, she doesn't ever give you any stick so leave her alone (small but perfectly formed like my wife was, pretty much same figure actually). Thanks again for allowing us a glimpse of your private holiday!
Absolutely stunning, the weather adds to the atmosphere! It’s like something out of a Tolkein novel!
Fantastic scenery, love that dynamic weather! Looking up stats on Madeira it's apparently warm all year round, but what I really can't handle is sun so maybe a winter trip.
Sat here next to my Campervan in Ulswater. Waiting for the other half to get up. Had a canny storm here last night, lots of thunder and lightning. Madeira is very high on our list of places to go so thank you for sharing your travels with us.
This is tremendous, fantastic place, loved it 👍👍👍😎
That looks amazing but just so busy 😮 what is trail ‘etiquette’ like on such a narrow path. I’m sure your lovely partner had a face like thunder at one point 🤔🤣
Seems very primordia. The land that time forgot.
wooah.. i m glad i found this channel. instantly subs. so fun to watch these 2. keep up these great videos guys, awesome. subbed.
These trees are absolutely amazing !
Great vid, thanks you two.
Wild, rugged snd beautiful !!
Great video. The scenery looks unreal.
Lovely area , 😊 but the number of people 😮😮😡😡😤🎉
That cheers was savage 🤣 😂
We did this walk as part of a small group tour starting at 6am. Was well worth getting up early for to avoid the crowds.
loved this video you two are adorable
This looks like a brilliant place. Very Jurassic park 👍
But the lack of mars bar breaks is concerning....we fear change!
That oops - done the same :) awesome vid
Those crowds would do my head in !!!🙄😤
Lovely video x
"People, who'd have em?"
Something Trance-y and Balearic was the correct choice. Shame the sun didn't play ball for the footage :D
Great walk BUT too many people, parts were like Striding Edge on a Bank Holiday weekend.
Stunning!!! but SO busy? Is there a quieter time / season Dina?
How enjoyable was that? At first I was like "Oh no, it's not Scotland or the Lake District", but it turned out to be amazing. What's not to like...a fantastic walk, boob action, sandwiches that take you to heaven and a little driving on the left...oops! 🤣🤣 Hey you had 1089AM on the radio. Did you get TalkSport out there?
Looks amazing 👌What I want to know is are we going to see yous drinking poncha at the end of the next video 🍹😉
People should never underestimate the power of a Portuguese person when they are hungry 😂😂😂😂 Just saying...
Love the Scottish accent on ‘boobs’! 😂
Sorry, dinner is in service so can't watch yet, but I know whist my spread is delicious, you'll always win on the visuals.
I really appreciate you sharing this wit us.
"Tonight, Mathew, I'm going to get 20 more subscribers!"
As soon as they've hoovered, done the dishes, weeded the garden and washed and valeted the car AND washed and deep cleaned those bedrooms they slept in for free for two nights.
I LOVE them dearly, but I am not their maid/Butler/hoover-weilding-furry/a-z(squared).
When they see THIS, hopefully, they'll spend lots of weekends at YOUR house! Xxx
Very good 'home video' but otherwise very disappointing! Just lots of shots of you both and other people. Not really a good viewing this time for us!
