Gastronomy
This tour we set out to find the true jewels of Gran Canaria. The idea of Trail Travel Tours came from the curiosity to know more about the island and the customs of its inhabitants.
Among
the variety of products offered on the route is the cured goat cheese
appellation of origin that will leave you with a slightly dry and acidic
taste at the end, homemade cheeses elaborated in a traditional way that are
absolutely incredible, always made with the best selection of raw milk, evolving naturally, giving it a unique flavor that true lovers of
cheese will definitely appreciate.
This is the route of tranquility and
intense flavor. It is a complete tour through which we get to experience
the real Gran Canaria and its different climatic zones.
Denominated as a continent in miniature due to the variety of landscapes
that it offers, an island that also is unknown even for its
inhabitants. Here you will really experience a different part of these
paradisiacal enclaves, well beyond the tourist development of the south
side. We are going through high mountains with amazing views without stress. From the
heights we can see the Tenerife bottom and the volcano Teide, which stands as the highest point in Spain.
Sheep
do not produce milk in the summer!
This is the time of year when they are pregnant and give way to the new generations, their lambs will be the ones who will produce milk in the fall. Transhumance is defined as a type of grazing in constant movement of the herds, adapting to areas of changing productivity, where the grass grows by temporality, from lowlands to highlands, with the change of seasons. The movement of the herd is in function of those of the fallen rains in the island.
All
our works are the result of love for things well done. Elaborated with
love and the detail that makes it exclusive. It is the meeting between
tradition and modernity. We go through the vegetation, enjoying life
naturally and absolutely abundance with authenticity !
The day offers many attractions, nature and very varied temperature changes. An extra jacket is recommended.
All routes include tasting, hiking, picknick, transportation, insurance and guide.
Hike - Roque Nublo Park
It is the epicenter of the magnificent network of nature trails offered by Gran Canaria,
located in its territory the Pico de Las Nieves, recorded as the
highest point of the island, whose peak rises to 1,949 mnm, offering
spectacular views of the areas Humid regions of the summit where the
canary pine dominates in reforestation with epiphytic lichens hanging
from the tree, together with some areas, also of California pine.
In the higher sections of the west and south, the same type of
vegetation continues, although forming more open forests. This has led
to the destruction and fragmentation of the pine forest as a result of
the change in the use of forest land and the various unsustainable uses.
The Caldera de Tejeda
exhibits the result of a volcanic past and the effects caused by the
erosion processes, which have led to a dramatic, rugged, rugged relief
and diverse geoforms. The great rocks, symbols of the island, a swarm of
conical dykes injected centuries ago in the caldera on the deep
ravines, as well as the vertical walls, impress even more force to the
landscape that, at the same time that is wild, is powerfully attractive.
Here we can observe geological phenomena, such as Roque Nublo, fantastic volcano rock that is the largest symbolic of Gran Canaria,
we will meet at 1.813 m.n.m. It bases its pillars on the solid base of a
delicate natural environment and the formations that protrude from the
ground are based on flows of nepheline basanítica of the cycle post
roque. All this creates an enclave of high ecological value, landscape,
cultural and environmental, which enjoys the declaration of Biosphere
Reserve. In turn, overlooking the magnificent Roque Bentayga and
spectacular basaltic python, it is constituted as a place of worship
revered in antiquity.
