Your Itinerary

Maspalomas

Visit to the famous dunes of Maspalomas, photo opportunity, short walk along the promenade.

Mirador Degollada De La Yegua

We stop at the viewpoint and enjoy the views of the small "Grand Canyon", the Fataga Valley and the south of Gran Canaria, Playa del Ingles and Maspalomas.

Fataga

Visit to the old mountain village of Fataga, with its typical whitewashed small houses and picturesque streets. We walk a little through the narrow paths and let the tranquility of the place affect us.

San Bartolome de Tirajana

(Pass by)

San Bartolome, the "capital" of the south.

Tejeda

Next up is the beautiful town of Tejeda, in the center of Gran Canaria. Some time ago it was voted one of the most beautiful villages in Spain. In addition, Tejeda is known for its almond specialties, which we are happy to try. Every year, at the beginning of February, the Almond Blossom Festival also takes place there.

Cruz de Tejeda

(Pass by)

Cruz de Tejeda, past the old crossroads and on to the green north side of Gran Canaria.

Teror

The landscape and especially the vegetation changes completely. From the rather dry center and south of the island we come down through fragrant pine forests through chestnut groves and the last remnants of the laurel forests of Gran Canaria. The destination is the pilgrimage site of Teror, known for its pedestrian streets with many wooden balconies and the imposing church. We enjoy the time in town and stroll through the old streets around the church square.

Nice, competent hiking guide. Leads the group at eye level. Has an ear for everyone. Chats about things that go beyond the normal horizon of the hike.

Great tour through GC. I really got to know other sides of the island through Jörg. Jörg knows a lot and can impart a lot of extra insights

I had the opportunity to take part in two tours with Jörg and can only praise him highly. The tours were very interesting, from the pick-up at the meeting point, detailed descriptions during the hike to good knowledge of the local conditions. I can definitely recommend these tours. Best wishes Marion

Die Wanderung mit Jörg war ein absolutes Highlight unseres Urlaubs auf Gran Canaria. Zunächst hat Jörg eine wunderschöne Wanderung ausgesucht und uns zusätzlich noch mit zahlreichen Hintergrundinfos versorgt. Wir gewannen so einen völlig neuen Blick für diese wunderbare Insel, dank der Tour mit Jörg. Wir können diese Aktivität uneingeschränkt weiter empfehlen.

Jörg hat uns auch diesmal wieder pünktlich am Hafen abgeholt. Der private Ausflug mit ihm war ein Höhepunkt unserer Cruise mit der MeinSChiff4! Er hat uns pünktlich am Hafen abgeholt, ist sehr freundlich, kennt sich super auf der Insel aus und hat uns wieder eine tolle Route abseits der Touristenströme ausgesucht. Unseren Wünschen entsprechend sind wir dieses Mal eine neue Route gefahren mit vielen kurzen Wanderungen und einem tollen Picknick in den Bergen! Er ist ein sehr umsichtiger und sicherer Fahrer und kennt nicht nur die Insel , sondern scheinbar auch alle Pflanzen! Echt beindruckend. Nochmals ganz herzlichen Dank und liebe Grüße von Birgit und Gerhard

Wir habern zwei Individualwanderungen mit Jörg gebucht. Wir wurden am Hotel abgeholt und Jörg hat uns bei unserer Fahrt viel über Gran Canaria und das Leben auf der Insel erzählt. Die Wanderungen waren sehr abwechslungsreich und Jörg ging auf unsere individuellen Wünsche ein. Wir würden Jörg und vor allem eine individuell geführte Wanderung bei ihm auf jden Fall wieder buchen und können ihn nur weiterempfehlen!

Jörg hat uns einige Highlights der Insel gezeigt und ist fröhlich und freundlich auf unsere Wünsche eingegangen. Seine Ratschläge waren sinnvoll. Gerne wieder, es gibt sicher noch genug zu sehen auf Gran Canaria!
