HIKING ON GRAN CANARIA

HIKING ON GRAN CANARIA

Hiking in Gran Canaria is one of the most popular outdoor activities among visitors to our island, because the island is not only known for its beaches and sunny climate, but also our hiking tours in Gran Canaria are among the most beautiful in the world. Whether short or long, hiking in Gran Canaria should be part of every holiday, so you do not miss the hidden treasures of our island. 
And so, much more people go hiking, promoting contact and connection with nature and our natural environment, and can actually enjoy some relaxation with our guided hikes.

Of course, the Canary Islands offer one of the best destinations for this. The Spanish islands in the Atlantic Ocean can boast a unique climate, which is exceptionally favorable for hiking in Gran Canaria. According to a study by Syracuse University (New York), Gran Canaria has one of the best climates in the world. As a result, the island offers a real hiking paradise. With diverse microclimates, Gran Canaria is described as a miniature continent, and this is exactly our goal: to guide our hikers through all the microclimates of the island, with our guided hikes. Of course, we have selected the most beautiful hikes on Gran Canaria.

The hiking holiday must be fun, but above all, experiencing something new is important too! With our hiking tours you will be able to see dry valleys full of avocado or papaya plantations, or hike through a dense laurel forest where despite the sun the shade of the forest can surprise us on the hike. This is all just a small part of the magical experiences that we are allowed to share on our hiking tours. So, what are you waiting for? Just write to us!

Of course, our tours always include:

• As much water as you want
• A vegetarian sandwich with avocado, tomato, salad, cucumber and cheese
• Hiking poles

With us, you only hike on Gran Canaria in small groups, that is, no buses with 30 people doing a pilgrimage up a hiking trail. The group size is always a maximum of 16 people, which are divided into two groups of 8; the latter might be subject to change depending on the circumstances. As a result, we can of course always make small changes or extensions. However, the most important feature is of course the personal connection that you can build in the hiking group. 

Attention! Of course, it is also important to know that we do not do sports hikes. We offer experience hikes, which means that we do not chase anyone through mountains and forests for 6 hours, but stop every 10 to 15 minutes to show you one of the treasures and beauties of the local nature.
