    Fantastic experience for any runner

    Wonderful morning with Dinarte. He was able to share some wonderful trails with me and happily extended the route to meet my needs. Pickup was on time, he looks after you throughout and adapts his pace. If you're a keen runner and want to see what the island has to offer, or just want to escape the pool or Funchal for a few hours I strongly recommend you go!

    Trail running Maderia

    This was truly a fantastic run and would recommend it to anyone. Dino has some great local knowledge and there is lots of craic to be had. we ran 18km but it was a comfortable run as Dino adapted to my pace and made it easy. I would hope to come back and do a few different tours in the future.

    Folhadal Hidden Treasures Running Tour (Moderate): questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Funchal.

    How much does Folhadal Hidden Treasures Running Tour (Moderate) cost?

    +

    Prices start at $69 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Funchal usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Folhadal Hidden Treasures Running Tour (Moderate) take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Funchal is not rushed.

    Is Folhadal Hidden Treasures Running Tour (Moderate) worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Funchal, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Folhadal Hidden Treasures Running Tour (Moderate)?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Folhadal Hidden Treasures Running Tour (Moderate) suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Folhadal Hidden Treasures Running Tour (Moderate)?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Funchal can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Funchal and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Folhadal Hidden Treasures Running Tour (Moderate) start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Funchal within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Funchal?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Funchal experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Jeep Tour Amazing West to Natural Pools -Full-Day, Porto Moniz, Seixal, Fanal Forest, Cliff Skywalk in Open Roof 4X4, Madeira 4x4 Jeep Safari : Porto Moniz, Lava Pools & Fanal Forest. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Funchal?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Funchal?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Folhadal Hidden Treasures Running Tour (Moderate)?

    +

    Included: Headlamp; Photos; Personal Accidents Insurance; and Liability Insurance. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Folhadal Hidden Treasures Running Tour (Moderate) include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 3 listed pickup locations in and around Funchal. Be ready about 60 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Folhadal Hidden Treasures Running Tour (Moderate) offered in?

    +

    It is offered in Portuguese, English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Folhadal Hidden Treasures Running Tour (Moderate)?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Folhadal Hidden Treasures Running Tour (Moderate) if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.

    What do travelers say about Folhadal Hidden Treasures Running Tour (Moderate)?

    +
