Many years ago I transferred a sailing boat to the Canary Islands - and was immediately fascinated by the geology and flora of this island world. As a result, I led hiking tours on Tenerife, La Gomera and El Hierro for several years. The rugged barrancos, the fairytale laurel forests, the moonlike volcanic landscapes, the rough cliffs, the good food and the nice people did not let me go.

Sailing trips led me there from time to time. Due to the trade wind there is always good wind, exciting jet effects, strategically well located harbours and enough sea space between the islands. The ideal area to collect offshore miles.

kanaren 2 thumbWater and mountains - that's what connects the islands; sailing and hiking - that's what connects our crew. During this trip I would like to show you my favourite places on the islands of La Gomera and Tenerife. If the wind allows it we will also head for El Hierro.

Sailing highlight is our boat: we are on a Racer-Cruiser (Archambault 40)!  So sailing fun is guaranteed.
Sailing highlights: Expanding trim and steering skills, safety at sea, seamanship, watch systems, gennaker sailing if possible (depending on wind).

kanaren 3 thumbPossible hikes (mostly guided): Tenerife: Anaga Mountains, Masca Canyon (probably not guided); La Gomera: Barranco del Cabrito & Roque del Sombrero, Valle Gran Rey, Garajonay National Park; El Hierro (El Sabinar).
Depending on wind and weather we will decide which islands and harbours we will visit and which hikes we will do.

kanaren 4 thumbIf there is enough interest, there is the possibility to finish the trip with the highlight of a Teide crossing including sunrise on the summit (return flight then 16.11.20). Saturday afternoon ascent to Montana Blanca and the self-catering hut below the summit. Early morning ascent to the summit of the highest mountain in Spain, crossing to Pico Viejo and descent to the rock formations Roques de Garcia. Only suitable for endurance hikers (Saturday: 920 m ascent; Sunday: 800 m ascent, 1929 m descent, 17 km). Due to the low capacity of the hut sleeping places, we ask you to let us know as early as possible whether you are interested in the extension. Price on request - depending on the number of participants (costs guide, transfer, overnight stay hut). The hotel accommodation on the day of descent has to be organized by yourself.
