El Roque Nublo and Bentayga, Tejeda, Artenara... Discover these impressive locations with this Sacred Mountains of Gran Canaria Tour from Las Palmas. You'll enjoy unforgettable landscapes travelling through the highest part of the island.
Sacred Mountains of Gran Canaria Tour
After picking you up at the chosen meeting point in Las Palmas between 9 and 9:45 am, we'll go into one of the most impressive areas of the island of Gran Canaria, the Sacred Mountains.
First, we'll travel to the small village of Moya, where we'll visit the house-museum of the poet Tomás Morales. You'll find out about the life of the island's representative for lyrical modernism and we'll approach the Doramas jungle viewpoint.
The tour will continue through the Sacred Mountains by bus through different villages and viewpoints, where we'll stop so that you can admire the landscape. One of the viewpoints we'll stop at Gáldar and the Montañón Negro.
The next stop will be the village of Artenara, one of the highest places we'll visit as well as the best views of the Roque Nublo and the Bentayga. Named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2019, we'll see its famous cave-houses as well as the replica of the Fallen Rock.
After this visit, you'll have 1 hour of free time to recover your strength in a restaurant in Artenara. After enjoying the Canarian food, we'll go to the last destination of the day, Tejeda. Did you know that it is considered one of the most beautiful villages in Spain?
We'll walk through the cobbled streets of Tejeda and its traditional whitewashed houses. We also recommend you try its famous almond sweets, which are delicious! The tour will end returning to Las Palmas at approximately 5 pm.
