ラパルマのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

If you can't get a parking reservation, hitchhiking is a good option. Going up and down worked perfectly!

Sturdy footwear with good tread and plenty of water are essential for this tour. The dry conditions will make you thirsty, and the ground is quite sandy in places, so you'd be slipping without good tread. A truly beautiful tour, 5 stars plus, an absolute highlight, and manageable for most people.

A beautiful section of the tour

It would have been nice to name the highlight here, and not just "Barranco"! The Barranco de las Angustias is a very beautiful gorge that essentially drains the caldera. The path sometimes leads directly along the water and sometimes above it. Anyone visiting La Palma should definitely visit this gorge. Free parking is available at the gorge exit!

Don't be fooled by the name Playa de Taburiente. It's not a beach like the ones a few kilometers further west by the sea, but rather a flatter spot in the caldera. A beautiful view of the surrounding caldera mountains. A very beautiful place that's well worth a visit.

On the path, or rather trail, from Los Bercitos to Playa de Taburiente, you automatically come to the Lomo de Tagasaste lookout point. It offers a beautiful view of the caldera and its mountain range. Breathtaking!

In October 2025, we encountered the rather aggressive German Shepherds from the blue house next to the very pretty, colorful door on the path. Fortunately, after a few minutes of growling and barking, they retreated onto the property, allowing us to pass. Avoiding them is otherwise impossible at that point. So, if the dogs had stayed on the path, we would have either had to stay within one meter of two territorial guard dogs or face a long, steep climb back down.
