Climbing to the summit of Pico das Torres on Madeira Island, Portugal
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
Follow along with new AirVuz contributor Jackson Groves on a climb to one of the tallest mountains on the Portuguese island of Madeira. The Pico das Torres is actually the second-highest mountain on this North Atlantic island, which is sovereign Portuguese territory but which lies closer to the coast of Morocco in northwestern Africa. The mountain lies west-northwest from the island's capital city Funchal, in the north-central part of the island. It has a summit elevation of about 1.85 meters above sea level (just under 6.1k ft.).

BADGES THIS VIDEO HAS EARNED:
There are hundreds of incredible hikes on Madeira but sometimes you need to take it up a level and reach new heights. On this adventure, I headed up from Pico do Arieiro to the summit of Pico das Torres. There was some scrambling, abseiling and some basic rock-climbing involved in this ascent, which was done as part of a tour with local legend, Gonçalo Silva. On this day we were lucky to have incredible weather in the morning before the clouds came in to create a dramatic atmosphere up amidst the tallest peaks on Madeira.
