이슬라 데 라 팔마‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪11‬개의 산길

water source at Reventon Pass

A beautiful king stage with impressive views, changing vegetation. The climb is a bit strenuous. Approx. 30% gradient (600 HM), the path is easy to walk. The long ridge path is equivalent to a road. If you like, you can walk this or choose the shady hiking path next to it. If you don't want to hike the long circuit, you have the opportunity to travel by bus or car to the El Pilar area and from there take a beautiful walk along the ridge path.

The climb to Roque del Faro begins immediately after you have driven through the dark tunnel of the LP-1 to the village of Franceses. (Be careful, the tunnel is unlit, be sure to take off your sunglasses and drive through slowly if you don't have light.) The pass then winds 8.30 kilometers through a wonderful jungle landscape. You will climb a total of 569 meters. On average, you'll get your money's worth here at 6.8 percent. However, there are also slightly flatter and even even sections of the route where there is time to breathe. The asphalt is consistently fine. However, there are a few individual holes and rippled spots in the tar caused by the heat on the route. As is usually the case in the north of the island, car traffic is very manageable. This pass is an important key climb if you want to either continue towards Roque de los Muchachos or continue towards the west side of La Palma.

The "Llano Negro" climb leads from the coastal town of Santo Domingo 8 kilometers uphill to LP-1. Once you reach the top you also have the opportunity to get some food, as there is a supermarket and a gas station with a snack restaurant there. The pass itself is pleasant to drive at 6.8 percent; you will climb 688 meters here. The road is in great condition. In addition, you don't have to worry about much traffic here. The vegetation on the climb is relatively similar from bottom to top; at first you will pass individual houses directly on the road. At the top there are always vantage points on the side of the road where you can pause. The entire pass is relatively open and unforested, making it very vulnerable to wind on stormy days. This can be a bit uncomfortable, especially in the last stretch, on the long straight if there is a headwind. Once you have reached the top, you have the decision to continue towards the Roque de los Muchachos, or you can take the route towards Roque del Faro and thus towards the north of the island.

Very long and quite demanding climb that from the center of Santa Cruz leads up to the "Roque de Los Muchachos" at 2426 meters above sea level. In total there are almost 41 kilometers that must be covered to reach the desired summit, but during the entire journey you can admire the wonderful landscapes that gradually open up to our eyes. Overall it is a street with little traffic and very quiet; I highly recommend checking the weather conditions before venturing towards the top because temperatures can drop significantly in winter and finding yourself pedaling in temperatures close to zero is not such a remote eventuality as you might expect from an island of the Canaries

The climb to the Col du Pirs begins almost immediately after the town of Villa de Mazo. Coming from the main road, you turn towards “Nambroque”. You won't see Col du Pirs written anywhere here. This is what the locals of Palermo affectionately call the pass. From this intersection, the climb stretches over 5.15 kilometers and involves climbing 395 meters, which corresponds to an average gradient of 7.7 percent. The pass ends in a shady dead end where you can relax under the pine trees after climbing from the Canary Islands heat. During the ascent you are always presented with a great view of the Atlantic. This climb is a real insider tip, no traffic, good asphalt and with the good gradient percentages it is also suitable for ambitious racing cyclists for training intervals. In addition, the pass is relatively short at just under 5 kilometers for the otherwise long uphill stretches on the island of La Palma.

This mountain road leads to the Roque de Los Muchachos Astrophysical Observatory and the highest point of the island, connecting with the LP-403 in its final section. It begins in the Mirca neighborhood, in Santa Cruz de La Palma, goes up to the observatory and then descends to Hoya Grande in the Villa de Garafía. It is a spectacular route to enjoy panoramic views of the island.
