Gran Canaria has been named the ‘Miniature Continent’ because of its landscape and climate.

The combination of the arid but spectacular canyons of the South with the lush green landscape of the North make Gran Canaria a real paradise for nature lovers and in particular for trekkers.

Gran Canaria offers numerous trekking possibilities for those of you who are newcomers and also for the more experienced.

Trekking is without doubt an ideal way of discovering both the natural, historical and protected areas that are hidden within the island.
