Achada do Teixeira taxi and PR1 transfers
Achada do Teixeira, above Santana, is where the PR1 ends for most hikers and the closest road access to Pico Ruivo. We collect you there in a private vehicle and drive you back to your accommodation.
Pick-up at the end of the PR1
Walking times on the PR1 vary a lot between groups. When you book, you give us the time you expect to reach Achada do Teixeira and we plan the pick-up around it.
If your timing changes during the walk, contact us as soon as you can. We check whether the pick-up can be moved — a change is only valid once our team confirms it.
Achada do Teixeira is also the road access used by walkers doing the short route to Pico Ruivo and back, without crossing the full PR1.
Typical requests
- • Pick-up after finishing the PR1 from Pico do Areeiro
- • Return to your accommodation anywhere in Madeira
- • Drop-off at Achada do Teixeira for the Pico Ruivo walk
- • Transfer back to a car left at the other trailhead
