Shorts Funchal Madeira Portugal: Cabo Girao Viewpoint, The Highest Cape in Europe

At an elevation of almost 2000 feet it is famous for its suspended glass platform. Standing on the cliff you have a vertiginous view of the fajãs of Rancho and Cabo Girão – small areas of cultivated land at the foot of the cliff – as well as magnificent panoramic views over the ocean and the cities of Câmara de Lobos and Funchal. The viewpoint has been recently renovated, and a suspended glass platform, called a skywalk, was opened in 2012. We were told that it is an excellent spot to practice paragliding and base jumping. In 2006, the Portuguese parachutist Mário Pardo performed a spectacular motorcycle leap here! PLEASE SUBSCRIBE TO THIS CHANNEL and Follow our social media channels and all profits go to CHARITY!
