The access
Reaching Faja dos Padres is a matchless experience in itself.
Since there is no road access to the lower base of the huge cliff, it has become imperative to create alternative, and in a way, exotic access means to the property.
Today, the most convenient access mean is by a state-of-the-art cable car, and the access by boat was made possible with the creation of a small pier.
The cable car works daily and the upper station is reachable by car. Fajã is only 15 minutes away from Funchal, and 25 minutes from the airport of Madeira.
At Fajã
Once arrived to Fajã do benefit from the absence of vehicles in the whole property. Book a guided visit and join us in a walk along the old alleys opened along tropical fruits orchards.
Get to Fajã by foot, an access for a few
For those adventurous there is a fantastic canyoning route accompanying a waterfall located at the east side of the property.
