April 14, 2025,Tag 6: La Zarza, San Antonio & Roque de Los Muchachos ☀️🏔️🤗
This time we headed back into a jungle barranco, through the still almost untouched laurel forests of the Barranco de la Zarza, an adventurous descent via stairs into the gorge, which should be avoided at all costs after heavy rainfall, as the stream then carries water.
We start at the (currently closed) Parque cultural La Zarza, through a tunnel, and …

According to the app, it was beautiful in the morning, but when I looked out the window it was raining 😅
We wanted to walk up to Puntagorda La Zarza, wonderful under the laurel and heather trees🤩
We only needed the rain protection twice 👍🏻
The paths and the gorge were a dream 🤩
The old la Zarza no longer …

On our penultimate day on La Palma, we drove to the north of the island in a rental car. The 65 km journey took almost 1.5 hours. My biker heart was fascinated by the endless and great curves, but it was really exhausting in the car, even though there was almost no traffic.
Our first tour for today started from …

The archaeological site of La Zarza in Garafía is currently closed due to landslides.
However, starting at the car park of the Parque Cultural La Zarza, you have the opportunity to descend into the magnificent, almost fairytale-like Barranco de La Zarza.
If you have a lot of stamina, follow the gorge to Don Pedro. Today I only did the small …

Unfortunately, the tour has been badly damaged by the storms of the last few months and is now impassable. Repairs are in full swing. The deep Baranco with its riverbed is almost entirely in cool shade. The upper part is used for agriculture and in St Antonio there is a small restaurant serving local dishes. Recommended for hot and dry …

Very nice hike in the north of La Palma. At some junctions it is essential to follow Komoot, even though it looks different in nature.

Today we drove to the north of the island in a rental car. The 65 km journey took almost 1.5 hours. But even though the roads are very winding, they are still very well developed. A small but fine tour through lush vegetation. Very impressive and, despite only 200 meters of elevation, not entirely without effort. Tour No. 27 from …

🥾 Today a walk with La Zarza as starting point. Because it promised to be a warm, sunny day with Calima, we chose this route that runs through 3 shaded cirques. The cirques or cathedrals are accessible by constructed stairs, often with a railing so that you can descend to the bottom of the valley. The cathedrals are overgrown with …
