    Pico Ruivo is the highest peak on the Madeira Island. It can be reached only by foot, usually either via a long trail from Pico do Arieiro or from Achada do Teixeira via a shorter trail. There is an additional trail leading west to Encumeada. A hut just below the summit is permanently closed but there is water tap and toilets available. Pico Ruivo is 1,861 metres high, and provides views of the island from coast to coast. Unpredictable weather conditions can make it quite dangerous.
