Visit

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. 

Access by Cable Car

The travel entails approximately 300 meters, experienced in a 2 and a half minutes downward travel, along the coast of the huge cliff down to Fajã dos Padres. 

Through the cable car panoramic windows visitors can enjoy each minute of the descent; admire the southern coast of Madeira all the way to Ponta do Sol, the small bay and fertile ground of Fajã which gets nearer every second or, simply, enjoy the view of the sea as far as the sight beholds.
