Vallehermosa to Agulo

On another hot and sunny day, we drove to Vallehermosa where I had a fresh orange juice at a cafe before starting the 14km walk with 770m of ascent and descent to the coastal town of Agulo. The trail passed the Roque Cano, terraced fields and banana plantations before following the contours of the coastal inlets. There had been excellent views of Mount Tiede plus the villages in the valleys.
The sea-misty Mirador Abrantes with its glass platform was closed when we arrived at 16.30. We popped into the National Park information centre nearby for a break before commencing the steep 700m walk down the cliff to Agulo just in time before it got dark.
I had king fish for dinner plus palm honey on goats cheese.Read more
