We had to cut our hike short after about two-thirds of the way and were able to reach the other side of the gorge via a narrow path. It had rained heavily in the days leading up to it. The stream was very high, and in some places, the elevated path had disappeared due to a landslide. Nevertheless, it was absolutely worth seeing what was down there. ...

The bridge is wide enough, but the road is very narrow in some places. And large buses use it.

If you continue to the right and cross the bridge, you will pass the coffee plantation. Then the footpath follows various stairs through the winding streets of San Pedro.

Beautiful jungle path, here you walk alone

At this point several hikers have obviously already missed the climb - approx. 50 m. Further on, if you missed the exit, the hiking trail through the Barranco ends at San Pedro and you can't go any further ("jungle feeling". End of the path, there are rock faces all around - definitely worth seeing ;-)). So go back and look for the exit ;- - at least that's what happened to us. So it's best to follow the official route directly: Coming from the direction of Agaete, go up to the left at the wooden post with a green marking (follow the trail) = BEFORE the small pond, and quite far before the foot bridge over the Barranco. After approx. 15 mtr. there is another post on the slope. Continue there along the old Levada wall. After about 30 meters you can decide whether to turn left onto the street or follow the path to the right over the "bridge". There we go up to San Pedro, where Finca la Laja is also located (can of course also be reached by road ;-)). By the way: If you don't turn left directly at the post, follow the now well-trodden path to the end of the dead end - definitely worth seeing (approx. 50 meters) - "jungle feeling" ;-).

A beautiful, fertile and green valley with laurel trees, eucalyptus trees etc. You can explore the valley on various hiking trails. The signs are quite good (and quite new) - we really liked the many signs and information boards along the way, where hikers can find out more about the valley, highlights and flora/fauna in different languages. Top !

On the way through the Barranco there are two places where sturdy ropes are attached as climbing aids, which are very helpful. You can easily pass the places in both directions, provided you are sure-footed, of course. Adventurous, but easy to master. In the Barranco you can sometimes get wet shoes/feet, depending on the weather and the water level, but it is usually not really deep. Stones and tree trunks are good help in most places and are welcome.

Very beautiful, idyllic Barranco. Here you follow the course of the stream through the Barranco on adventurous paths, crossing it again and again. Including small climbing insoles... Sturdy shoes are important!
