Along the canal, it is possible to observe indigenous vegetation such as tis, leaf, vinhático and uveiras-da-serra. It is one of the oldest levadas on the island, built in the 17th century and, like its counterparts, it serves to collect water and take it to places of agricultural and domestic use. It is included in the Laurisilva World Heritage classification and is part of the European Network of Sites of Community Importance, the Natura 2000 network.
