Laurisilva Forest of La Gomera

Highlight • Forest

Like something out of a fairy tale, the high level of humidity that can be trapped in the dense forests of La Gomera, creates the perfect conditions for the Laurel tree, also called Laurisilva, to thrive in this subtropical environment.

Today is a walk-friendly hike. The first part is a path, then it continues on comfortable roads. My wife saved herself the steep path at the end and went up to the road, where I picked her up.

A tour with plenty of perspective and views. Nothing exciting. More of an exercise. Without wanting to downplay that.

What a dream of national park cloud forest. Only, the view of the Teide was missing. No matter, we preferred the fog, the humidity, the dripping laurel trees, the rich flora, the chirping of birds. Thank you nature.
