Why Choose This Tour?

Very technical and demanding trails with lots of rocks, steps and challenging sections to satisfy the most seasoned Enduro rider.
The tracks, carved on the sides of the canyons by the natives of the island, incredibly vary during the excursion, while the views are always stunning.
Starting form Pico de las Nieves, the summit of the island we tackle a demanding and exciting rocky technical descent.
The trail then flows in a beautiful forest, gently dancing among the trees and giving us intense emotions.
The scenario here is priceless and it is impossible not to stop and admire the incredible landscapes that surround us.
A short stop after a challenging rocky downhill and we enter into the valley of Fataga.
The last part of the tour reserves us a lot of emotions with amazing single tracks that, little by little, take on tropical characteristics with respect to the high altitude trails.
A transfer tarmac leads us to a panoramic balcony, from where the amazing Yegua trail begins.
