Top 6 Caves 라스 니에베스

A stunningly beautiful hiking trail leads along here, surrounded by stunning nature. A visit is highly recommended and interesting 👍🏻.

The route is currently closed.

Did this tour today. Some pretty narrow paths along steep cliffs. Not for the faint hearted! Be sure to have sufficient hiking experience and make sure you have hiking poles. Necessary! Else too dangerous / slip falls. Piece of advice: bring a flashlight for the water tunnels.

This was the first tour of our La Palma holiday. It was supposed to be an easy one. However, it ended up being a steep uphill climb over some rocky paths covered in roots. However, we were rewarded with a variety of plants, some of them exotic, that grow wherever there is a patch of earth. At the turning point in the tour, there is the option of doing the circular route through a tunnel, which also contains the channel that carries water from the summit into the valley. This tunnel is visibly blocked off with four gates, distributed along the entire route. However, you can go past it from the side, which is what a few hikers did, i.e. keep your head down. It is not completely dark, as the tunnel is repeatedly ventilated through holes in the rock.

The tunnel cannot be entered

Currently, in January 2024, visiting Tendal Cave is not possible because archaeologists are carrying out scientific work there.

Unfortunately, we walked quite a bit along the road on the way there because we chose the wrong hike via Komoot, even though you have a great view of the sea. To get to the playa you have to go down a lot of stairs 😊. It's definitely worth it. There are parking spaces available before descending. We went back along the hiking route.
