Our senior chief Sigi Bachmeier is rightfully known as the walking pioneer of Madeira. Already back in the 60´s he explored and created descriptions for the first walking routes and he was also active in educating the first official walking guides on the island. 

Today the Galo Resort hotels has become the main location for all tour operators specializing in walking tours. Alpinschule Innsbruck, Hagen Alpin Tours, Weltweitwandern, Merlot Reiser, Haga Nor just to mention a few.
