Lush Laurel Forest Trail

Highlight • Forest

In addition to the laurel, there are many other plants and trees to observe. The narrow path that follows the stone wall is full of cacti and is beautiful.

Los Tilos Forest Trail

Highlight • Trail

Since February 23, the nicer half of the round has been blocked, so you don't get very far. Didn't look like anything was going to change anytime soon

March 13, 2024,🇪🇸 GC - Lorbeerwald Los Tilos (oder: Tilo in Los Tilos)

Tilo in Los Tilos - of course I couldn't miss it. 😉👍🏻
It is a beautifully landscaped small circuit in a nature reserve that includes the remnants of one of the last laurel forests that once covered large parts of the north of the island.
The forests were cut down by the Spanish conquerors to grow sugar cane.
The family-friendly …

This is a very nice and easy to walk hike for the kids of all ages. But they will need to walk - this hike is not suitable for strollers.

We have been here twice - the last time the kids were 3 and 5.5 years old and they loved the hike.

Something short today, the weather wasn't great (rain and cold)
The tours are all from the Roth hiking guide!

A leisurely walk through various flora areas, similar to a botanical garden. Also suitable for very sunny days, as the trees provide shade. Not completely wheelchair accessible.

A very beautiful, mostly easy circular trail with lush vegetation in May. Highly recommended. On the rocky slopes, you might spot the odd gecko, a symbol of the island.

February 21, 2022,Gran Canaria. Reserva Natural Especial de Los Tilos de Moya

The stark contrast to the south of the island. Everything is green and blooming. Unfortunately caught a rainy day. Even the journey from the motorway is an experience. It goes past many eucalyptus forests and everything smells like it. The small circuit is worthwhile for everyone who is interested in the plants in the north of the island

Few parking spaces and no places to stop for refreshments available.
