Description:
Get a different impression of Roque Nublo as you watch it during summer sunset. The view from this "must-see" of Gran Canaria at twilight is phenomenal, extending across the island’s Biosphere Reservation and the mountains in the west.
The sunset Roque Nublo hiking tour feature a walk around the emblematic Roque Nublo of Gran Canaria, passing through a pine forest and the amazing view of the Caldera de Tejeda crater. This guided hike will also take you to Mirador de la Fogalera where you can enjoy the view of Roque Bentayga, deemed scared by the people in Gran Canaria. We will then hike up to reach the symbolic attraction of Gran Canaria – the majestic basaltic Roque Nublo – measuring at 67 metres in height. Not visiting this rock means you had an incomplete visit to Gran Canaria.
We will rest at the base of Roque Nublo and marvel at the breathtaking summer sunset. As it turns dark, admire the little glimmers of light from the distant villages and the stars right about as you enjoy a rare peace and tranquility that the area can offer. This will be a hike you will remember for a long time!
