Whose cameras these are

All cameras are run and streamed by NetMadeira. We do not embed their feeds: every link opens the operator's page, where the stream lives.

Links lead to external services and may stop working without notice. A camera shows a single point, so it replaces neither the official trail status nor the IPMA forecast.
