Description
<p>La Gomera is the wildest island in the Canary Islands. It is made for nature lovers and walkers. From the central highlands of the island, which is almost 1500 meters high, countless star-shaped gorges wind their way down to the sea, carving deep into the otherwise gently sloping island. La Gomera offers an incredible variety of landscapes: Idyllic valleys with terraced fields and palm groves contrast with rugged cliffs and spectacular gorges, the fairytale-like laurel forests of the Garajonay National Park with pine forests and banana plantations. The Rother hiking guidebook »La Gomera« presents a wide selection of wonderful walking suggestions with 73 routes, covering all regions of Gomera.<br><br>Walkers can expect unparalleled pleasure tours, between smooth lava beaches, lush foggy forests and cloud-covered ridges. The trails range from leisurely paths through palm groves to tranquil strolls in the hills and panoramic summit ascents. Hiking trails through the lush cloud forest are included, as are the partly stone-paved caminos, which used to be the main connecting routes between the villages. Many of the suggested tours are ideal for less experienced walkers. But even experienced mountain hikers who can handle a dash of adventure and thrills will find a wide range of tours on offer.<br><br>With clear tour information, detailed route descriptions, detailed map sections and informative altitude profiles, the hikes are easy to follow. GPS tracks are available for download. The hiking guide has been carefully updated for the 19th edition.</p> <p
