잔디아‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪16‬개의 산 정상

From up here you have a wonderful view of the west and east coast!

The hike up Fuerteventura's highest mountain should be undertaken in sunny weather and with as little wind as possible. If trade wind clouds hang over the summit, you won't see anything.

A strenuous trail, especially the final stretch is very steep. Not for beginners, but worth the effort!

If you've made it this far, you should be able to make it to the summit!

Interesting information about the history of the Pico de la Zarza: https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pico_de_la_Zarza

I had two attempts. The first time it was too windy, so it was difficult to walk safely. The second time I went from Morro Jable over the radio mast (277 m above sea level) to the ridge (I estimate 650 m altitude). Unfortunately the recognizable path ended halfway, but the view of Cofete, Villa Winter and the coast made up for all the exertions. It was sweaty and not without danger (loose rock), which is why I would only recommend the route to very fit and experienced hikers.

At the end it's about a kilometer steeply uphill
