MTB-Tour El Golfo

A pleasure ride, with all the beauties that the west coast around EL Golfo offers. From the turnoff (km 3.5) through the lava landscape toward Salinas de Janubio is military restricted area, although I have never encountered military personnel there. Passing the salt flats and Los Hervideros (a unique spectacle of sea and surf), onward to Charco de los Ciclos with its green water, on LZ 704 towards Yaiza, turnoff into the terrain – for those who wish to visit the lonely Playa del Paso, note: from km 18.5 runs the border of Timanfaya National Park, which is generally closed to MTB, rangers monitor the area, no problems on foot – and back on LZ 703 to EL Golfo. If you arrive at El Golfo late in the afternoon, you will witness the most beautiful sunsets on the island.
