Pico Ruivo is the highest peak on Madeira Island. It can be reached only by foot, usually either from Pico do Areeiro after a strenuous hike, or from Achada do Teixeira via a shorter, easier trail. There is an additional trail leading west to Encumeada. The hut just below the summit is now open, and there are water tap and toilets available.
Pico Ruivo is 1,861 metres high and provides panoramic views of the island from coast to coast, but unpredictable weather conditions can make it quite dangerous.
