WalkMe | Walking in Madeira

We used this to pick and plan three hikes whilst on holiday. It was fantastic! We didn’t get lost, the comments from others are highly valuable. I would just check weather separately for different heights before heading - maybe something to be incorporated into the app. 100% worth the money!

Originally explorer price said 5.50 euros then when I created an account and tried to buy it jumped up to 6.99 pounds which is over 8 euros. It’s not a lot but it should be the same price for everyone.

I’ve bought the app but honestly regret it. Not much what app can offer. Everything you can find on internet for free. Also, there is no option to edit/delete submitted comment. No option to upload photos showing current status of levada or some tips. Neeeh…

Great web site but a bit of information on the walks.

This is an awesome app. Well done guys, I’d highly rate this for anyone looking to walk this beautiful island. It’s easy to use, precise and you can save and rate each and every walk you do. The walks are rated by the developers into easy, moderate and hard. They list many stunning walks that just take your breath away with the magnificent views and scenery. Make sure you have good walking boots, drinking water and the right clothing. Enjoy this beautiful island

This app is a must if you are doing levadas in Madeira. Initially, I only used the free levada course available on the app. I quickly realised that it would be wise to purchase the app to ensure that I could fully enjoy all of the information available about levadas.

I bought this app as I love to walk, however the walks I tried to find didn’t work. It just directs you to google maps to find the start of the trail and twice I tried and it was the wrong place! Also it’s so out of date/not updated - kept telling me that one of the trails had to start in a different place due to damage etc and it turned out that this damage occurred in the fires 2 years ago and had been fine to walk on for over a year! I walked this trail myself and it was fine. I did contact the developers but they were kind of dismissive and didn’t want to know. The weather guide is so so wrong also. Would say rain when it was bright sunshine etc and this was every time. Much easier to just speak with other walkers and ask the bus drivers for start points.

Used the app twice last year and found the gps extremely useful. More descriptions of the route would be helpful but overall wouldn’t be without it.

If your visit here is about walking, get this app. Well thought out with handy detail of buses, weather (although the source is not good), links to google maps and reviews from others. The interactive/gps map is invaluable. Ignore the weather on here although the idea is useful. The walk level is relative to who you are and the conditions. The times are sometimes a little on the short side (taking into account holiday faff, photos, breaks). I’m a solo fast walker. But in general a really great app and it takes a lot for me to buy an app!

What a waste of money! There are no directions. It's almost
