In a few words

Embark on a week-long hiking adventure in La Gomera and take on the challenge of a complete 6-stage trek along the island's most iconic trails. Following the GR 131 , you'll hike along volcanic ridges and cross the highest peaks before entering the UNESCO-listed Garajonay National Park , famous for its vast, mist-shrouded laurisilva forests.

In Las Hayas , a friendly stop at a renowned local inn, then head towards the north coast following the GR 132 , from Vallehermoso to Agulo . Steep cliffs, monumental rocks and spectacular viewpoints punctuate the progress, with striking views of Teide and the island of Tenerife as a backdrop.

From Hermigua , renowned for its mild climate, the route climbs back up towards the heights, passing through the hamlet of El Cedro , in the heart of unspoiled nature.

In total, 89.8 km of walking through volcanic landscapes, panoramic ridges and authentic villages, for a complete immersion on the wildest island of the Canaries.

The highlights

  • Point-to-point routes, traversing mountain peaks and coastal paths
  • Luggage transfer arranged so you can travel light

After reaching the Degollada de Peraza (Peraza Gorge ), the trail continues towards the summit, passing the hermitage of Nuestra Señora de Las Nieves and entering the lush forest. The first of the spectacular rock formations then appears on the left: Roque de Agando, a colossal basalt rock formation rising between two deep ravines. A little further on, we reach the Mirador de Los Roques (Los Roques Viewpoint), from where we can enjoy a magnificent view of Mount Teide, the vast sea of ​​clouds stretching across La Gomera, and the various rock formations: Ojila and Agando .
