Where the road takes you.

Not a timetable. The island decides that on the morning. This is the road the day takes and what waits at each stop.

    The gradient is the history. The city grew upward because there was nowhere else to go.

    Funchal laid out below in one piece, harbour to ridge, which is the only way to understand its shape.

The practical half.

What to bring

  • Shoes for a climb on cobbles
  • Water
  • A hat in summer

If the weather turns

Funchal shrugs off most rain. If it is heavy we spend longer inside the parts of the city that reward it.

Where we meet

We meet in the Old Town. No van on this one.

Hold the date.
