The trail winds through the picturesque mountainous landscapes of central Gran Canaria, near the summit of Pico de las Nieves (1,949 m above sea level). This is a unique route that allows you to discover the island’s untamed beauty, experience its mountain atmosphere and admire spectacular panoramic views of the surrounding mountain ranges and the ocean.
Along the way, you can enjoy vast forests of Canary Island pine, rugged mountain scenery and the impressive silhouette of Roque Nublo (1,813 m above sea level), one of the island’s most iconic landmarks. In favourable weather conditions, the trail also offers views of Gran Canaria’s eastern and southern coastlines, as well as the majestic Pico del Teide volcano (3,718 m above sea level), rising on the neighbouring island of Tenerife. It is an ideal choice for lovers of mountains, nature and unforgettable scenery who want to discover one of the most picturesque parts of the island.
