View of Mount Teide from Garajonay National Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

At this point you have a comfortable seat and an amazing view. With luck, courageous, cheeky birds come and want something from the lunch break. Very nice stain.

Raso de la Bruma (Misty Forest of Garajonay National Park)

Highlight • Forest

Really one of the most beautiful places in the cloud forest, because there is almost always fog over the moss-covered trees and you have a very mystical atmosphere.

August 3, 2022,Runde von Los Barranquillos über Raso de La Bruma und Chorros de Epina

A rather leisurely tour, very varied, mostly in the shade and therefore also ideal for hot, sunny days.

Two-thirds of the tour was through the forest. There are beautiful views on the way back, but it could get hot. The landscape on the tour is very varied.

Beautiful tour, mostly on pleasant hiking trails, where you only get out of breath at the beginning and shortly before the end on the climbs. Beautiful, shady paths, very pleasant even on hot days. Start and finish at a restaurant serving Gomeran cuisine with a great panoramic view.

March 9, 2026,🇮🇨 Epína - Montaña de a Araña + "Zauberwald"

Another beautiful hike through the national park. We especially enjoyed the "enchanted forest," and today the sun even came out at times, creating some unique lighting effects. However, the view (especially towards Mount Teide in Tenerife) was a bit tricky. Nevertheless, we thoroughly enjoyed the hike.

The sections in the forest are beautiful. However, it is also about 1.5 hours in the blazing sun, so think of sun protection. The last 1.5 km of the route you walk directly on the road.

Wonderful tour - and Komoot messed up again at the end, for whatever reason. 🤦🤷‍♂️

March 11, 2023,Runde durch den westlichen Garajonay

Today we drove through western Garajonay in glorious sunshine. Even after a good two months on the island, there are still undiscovered things. So today we finally visited the Churros de Epina (and now we are EVEN MORE lucky in love).
