Walking in La Gomera

  • A rocky coastline and verdant green gorges make La Gomera a walker's paradise
  • Dense laurel forests, remnants of eras past and a UNESCO World Heritage Site
  • Brightly coloured streets of San Sebastian, the tiny colonial capital
  • Perfect walking temperatures - all year round
  • Coastal and mountain walks and hand picked accommodation
Discover the botanical paradise of La Gomera on foot. La Gomera, the greenest of the Canary Islands, lies just 30 kilometres off the coast of Tenerife, but is a world away in terms of atmosphere and landscape. Steep cliffs along the rocky coastline give way to volcanic peaks inland and deep gorges, or barrancos, limit access to many parts of the island. La Gomera's greatest treasures are found in the Garajonay National Park, among the dense vegetation of its mysterious laurel woods, where centuries-old trees clothed in moss give the impression of a tropical rain forest. In the valleys sculpted landscapes of terraces of banana, papaya and mango trees are equally beautiful. The rugged coast of steep cliffs and small coves are another delight.
