Levada Nova Lombada Waterfall Walk

Levada Nova Lombada can be done along with Levada Moinho. You can start with Levada Moinho first, and return on Levada Nova which features a beautiful waterfall and a pretty long tunnel. Levada Nova also requires no fear of heights, as many sections of the trail are not protected with a railing. The path is safe and wide enough. Focus is required for many sections.
