Trail Running in La Gomera

This trail route starts on the west coast of La Gomera, in the very capital of the island. The first climb, a daunting 12 kilometres is enough to realise that this is not a run for beginners. This is followed by a ten kilometre descent. The chance to contemplate the impressive landscapes of El Barranco de Las Lajas and the Palacios dam makes the effort very worthwhile. Nearby is the impressive Natural Monument of Palacios, the highest point of the run, at 1,150 metres above sea level. A stop off to drink and to contemplate the wonderful view of El Teide is a must.
