Walking for Life: The Doves' Trail – Challenging Level
About the plan
The 'Walking for Life: The Doves' Trail – Challenging Level' invites you to explore Monte de La Orilla on a demanding circular route. This trail starts and ends in Plaza de San Marcos, located in the municipality of Tegueste, a natural area of great ecological and cultural value.
Along the route, you'll traverse ancient paths traditionally used by local residents to access their agricultural and forestry work areas. The itinerary delves into areas of laurisilva forest, home to the Turqué pigeon, one of the most representative endemic species of this ecosystem. Additionally, you will discover ravines and historic paths that offer insight into the long-standing relationship between humans and the mountain.
The route has an approximate distance of 10.4 km and a positive elevation gain of 220 metres, making it a challenging activity, ideal for individuals accustomed to hiking mountain trails.
To fully enjoy the experience and ensure your safety, we recommend bringing:
- Suitable hiking boots
