Long walk along a very traditional and one of he most unspoilt areas on the island. Well-preserved centuries-old paths, a practically intact rural landscape and the deep ravine of Gallegos.

Sustainability

Never leave waste of any type lying around, including cigarette butts. Leftover food leads to a proliferation of rats and wild cats, which pose a serious threat to the fauna.
Respect the animals. Do not bother them or feed them. If you see an injured specimen, you can call the emergency number: 112. Do not pick flowers or plants.
Do not pick up or take away stones or any other item from the natural environment. And do not move them to pile them up into sadly famous 'towers'.
Respect the signposting along trails. Leaving the set paths causes damage to the environment and could also be dangerous for you and anyone with you.
It is safer to keep your pet on a lead.
Try not to alter the peace of the environment with excessive noise (loud music, yelling, etc.).
