Between the Teide and the Atlantic Ocean, the north of the island is the perfect place for discovering the island’s traditions, gastronomy and handicrafts, while enjoying its coast and pleasant temperatures all year round. The Casa del Vino La Baranda, the historic quarter of La Orotava and Puerto de la Cruz are three possible stops to be made along this route.

The Los Sentidos trail runs along an old King's highway. Part of it has been recovered for the enjoyment of hillwalkers and nature fans from all over the world who are attracted to it due to the wealth of plant life in the lush laurisilva, full of textures and lively colours and the scent and the sound of silence emanating from its prehistoric heart. An information board system helps you experience these sensations in a very original way.

A modern cable car allows one to - very conveniently - come extremely close to the summit and enjoy the spectacular views it affords.

Not far from the berth for cruise liners arriving in the city is one of the most famous urban beaches in Europe: Las Canteras.

Its iconic sandbank is also a natural breakwater and protects it from waves, which means you can relax and enjoy it.

Most of the population of Gran Canaria, with the third-largest surface area in the Canary Islands, resides in its capital, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (400,000 inhabitants), and key municipalities in the eastern area such as Telde, above all.

To the south of the island of Gran Canaria, no more than 45 minutes drive away along a modern motorway, Maspalomas Beach offers us the chance to enjoy an extraordinary day at the beach with kilometres of sand stretching as far as the Playa del Inglés, and we can also discover the exotic beauty of its famous dunes. The beach provides all kinds of services for its users and different atmospheres that combine in absolute harmony.
