Guayadeque Canyon

On the first of many sunny and warm days, and despite having been kept awake by the church bell ringing every hour during the night, the group walked from Aguimes along the Barranco de Guayadeque, stopping at the Cenro de Interpretation to learn about the cave dwellers. We continued up the gorge to the Cueva Bermejas for a drink at a cafe in the cave before ascending the cliffs to reach the top of the gorge, about 600m high, for lunch. We walked back to Aguimes through abandoned farm terraces. The walk was about 12 kms with 550 metres of ascent and descent.
I walked around the pretty centre of Aguimes, entering the Iglesia de San Sebastion, and had a radler, a refreshing lager shandy and cheese cake. In the evening, we had an al fresco tapas dinner.Læs mere
