About this audio guide
This guide to the Véu da Noiva viewpoint on Madeira's north coast is about the road beneath your feet rather than the waterfall in front of you. It follows the old ER one-oh-one, a post-war strip of tarmac cut into sheer cliff, and the holidaymakers who treated it as the island's great joyride. Stand at the railing facing the falls and look down toward the shoreline.
