    Tips

    Barranco de las Vacas is known for its colorful layers of tuff. The rock of the gorge, like everything in Gran Canaria, is of volcanic origin.

      The parking situation is a bit difficult, as is getting down to the gorge. Depending on the parking space, you have to walk a few 100 m along the street.

      I cannot recommend a visit on the weekend. We were lucky and were alone in the gorge. On the way back we saw dozens of oncoming people. Hiking boots are an advantage as it is rocky, but we also saw quite a few people wearing flip flops.

        Was a lot easier to walk than I thought it would be. By late Saturday afternoon we had the little Barranco almost to ourselves and finding a parking space wasn't a problem either. Worthwhile and great for photos, but seeing it once is enough
