Rampa do Porto da Cruz

Madeira's motorsport calendar heats up on 4–5 September 2026, when Porto da Cruz hosts the Rampa do Porto da Cruz — a hill climb race that sends drivers racing up the parish's winding roads against the clock.

Hill climbs are a classic form of motorsport where cars compete individually against the clock on a closed public road, making them a thrilling and accessible event to watch from the roadside. Porto da Cruz's scenic setting on Madeira's north coast adds a striking backdrop to the competition.
