Hiking trails

All of the natural spaces in Los Realejos are connected to each other and also to the residential areas, through a network of old roads and trails so that it is possible to get practically anywhere in the municipality on foot.

From the coast up to the summit, the hiker will find a multitude of views and panoramic
scenery which will also allow them to observe plant and animal life, some of it rare or even

local population and so learn the customs, stories and legends that fill this place with magic.
