Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

As part of the Eastern Tour organized by Feeling Madeira Tours & Walks, our mini-bus made a stop in the Ribeiro Frio (Cold Stream) Natural Park.
-
This place in the forest is very popular. There is a trout farm with its forest house, a beautiful little chapel, forest trails leading to levadas (traditional irrigation canals), but also a restaurant, a café and a few souvenir shops.
-
Here, nature is beautiful. Undergrowth populated by friendly, slightly wild birds with a robin shape, yellow ocher belly, blue head, moss green and gray back, anthracite tail variegated with blue.
-
The flora abounds in tree ferns, rhododendrons, blue bugloss, chamomile-like flowers, erections (wall daisies), ivies. . .
-
Ribeiro Frio promises you beautiful hikes along the levadas.

There were several segregated pools holding trout in different stages of development.
There is a coffee shop adjacent that has a specialty coffee drink that includes Madeira wine with a lemon twist. I felt the addition of the wine ruined the taste of good coffee, but, ah, the experience is what matters.

Was looking forward to this greatly. I have often heard about the wild exptic flowers of Madeira. There was nowhere to park and too many slow moving elderly people from England who smelt of urine. The flowers were unexceptional. If I want to see a hydrangea and airiolas and listen to Margret and Harold talk about how they’re not a patch on the ones in Marbella, I’d sit around Luton airport. There were only 2 toilets

Just a simple trout farm. We walked around it for about 10 min. Worth stopping if you're planning other activities here, such as Levada walks.

This place is set in the nice nature and I can understand the purpose of it. We spent there approx. 10-15 minutes, the gate was opened and no entrance fee paid. We could walk through it without a guide. We saw many tanks with trout of different sizes.

For those who like aquariophilia, aquaculture is also interesting. I ⁇ seeing the breeding in a nursery of rainbow trout.

In a beautiful environment, worth a stop. Beautiful levada, next to a small garden, not far from a beautiful little chapel

Not bad. A short and simple visit. You see the different sizes of trout in the different ponds. For €1 you can ask for little more.
