Hiking to Roque Nublo

Forget about stress, rushing, noise, and strict schedules. We have a simple yet enticing proposal for you: dare to daydream and embark on a journey along a historic path deep in nature.

Close yet far from the sea, this route takes you through ancient cobbled trails that invite peace, reflection, and tranquillity. This is your chance to experience a unique adventure in Gran Canaria, without hurry, free from time constraints, breaking away from the ticking of the clock.

If you like listening to music while walking, opt for something soft, perhaps even romantic, to match this dreamlike setting. Something from Laurie Blue Adkins, better known as Adele, would be a perfect choice—any song from the British soul-jazz queen will make a great soundtrack for your hike.

A Stress-Relief Therapy
Your stress-relief journey can begin at the base of Roque Nublo, one of Gran Canaria’s most iconic natural landmarks. A perfect starting point for a serene hike that will clear your mind, refresh your body, and even uplift your soul.

The bright blue sky will be your silent witness as you embark on this trail without a set destination, allowing yourself to get lost in the lush surroundings of this majestic, untouched landscape—a site sculpted by millions of years of wind erosion.

The largest forest plateau in Gran Canaria surrounds this area. Expect a fresh, crisp breeze, surprisingly cool in winter but much gentler in summer. But don’t worry—the ever-present sun will embrace you with its warm rays, making it an essential companion for your journey.
