Review. Hiking in Madeira «Secrets of Madeira»

Everything was perfectly organized and perfectly in line with the plan. The stay was comfortable and exceeded all expectations. There were no complaints about the logistics either, there was a choice between a bus and a taxi.

There was a lot of food and there was always enough. Food was cooked over the fire 3 times a day. Tea and coffee were also prepared. All parking lots were with water. Didn't experience any digestive problems. The food was high in calories and after the hike, I did not lose weight. The best were cereals made from cereals. Concentrates and sublimates quickly became boring.

Professional instructor. I always followed the plan, gave comprehensive information, repeated it separately for everyone. He was tolerant of human shortcomings and did not condemn anyone.

This was my first trip of this kind. And I liked everything. Equipment and training were in line with expectations. After the hike, I returned full of strength and energy. My dream came true, I saw the ocean and even swam in it. Sunrises and sunsets in the mountains are something. Equipment and training should not be underestimated. Do not spare money for the right shoes and clothes, choose a sleeping bag for your thermophilicity, prepare your legs and endurance for long ascents and descents. Without all this, the campaign can turn into a continuous chain of suffering and unnecessary overcoming. But if you follow the recommendations for preparing for the hike, then you can have an easy and fun time.
