Our hike takes place in the mountains of Puntallana first, and then we will finish in the coast, only 2miles away in straight line.
The first part of our hike takes place in one of the best laurel forests of the island, where huge laurel trees and enormous ferns grow in this very humid microclimate, unique in the Canary Islands.
As we reach the highest point of the hike, Mirador Somada Alta we enjoy this great balcony over the northeast part of the island. Then we descend towards San Bartolo, where we have our lunch break.
For the second part there is a longer hike through the spectacular gorge of La Galga and the Banana plantiations of this area with the finishing line over in the view point of Nogales beach.
