Description
Explore the Laurel forest of La Gomera , observe different species of flora and fauna and enjoy the unique impressions you feel when walking under the immense crowns of these ancient trees.
In the morning you meet your guide at the San Sebastian bus station. Get in the car, relax and enjoy the views as you head to the Garajonay National Park.
We will start our route near the "Roque Agando", an impressive volcanic piton that stands at the entrance to the "Garajonay" National Park. From the viewpoints of Los Roques we will enjoy fantastic views before entering the National Park. Under a dense crown of huge trees we will cross the ancient laurel forest with its exuberant vegetation. Passing by the "Ermita de Lourdes" in the heart of the forest, we will follow the course of a stream until we reach the "El Cedro" farmhouse. Here the forest opens up and suddenly we have spectacular views towards the Hermigua valley. We will go back uphill and then we will descend steeply through an area of laurel forest full of mosses and lichens. We will return to San Sebastián along the northern road that allows us to enjoy views of the northern ravines of La Gomera.
