Pico do Arieiro to Stairway to Heaven WITH KIDS | PR1 Madeira Family Hike

We hiked the famous PR1 Pico do Arieiro trail in Madeira, Portugal with our kids — and it was one of the most breathtaking (and nerve-testing!) family hikes we’ve ever done. If you’re visiting Madeira and wondering whether the Stairway to Heaven hike is doable with children, this video is for you. We had to come back for three times before finally getting clear blue skies (January 2026). Very different from my solo hike the day before in very windy conditions Tips for families: Wear proper hiking footwear — there are plenty of stone steps and uneven surfaces. Stay hydrated, especially on sunny or windy days. The paths are well maintained and clearly marked, with lots of built-in steps and railings in many sections. Be extra careful on the narrower parts of the trail — some sections have steep drop-offs and can feel exposed. If you’re okay with a few heights and take it at your own pace, this hike rewards you with some of the best views in Madeira, Portugal
