Hard road ride. Very good fitness required. Some segments of this route may be unpaved and difficult to ride. The starting point of the route is right next to a parking lot.

Climb to the Valley of Tears via Degollada del Humo Viewpoint
Highlight (Segment) • Climb
On the first 2km of the GC606 (the short variant of this "Valley of Tears" route) we knew immediately what the girls at the bike rental meant!!🙈 Ramps of the nasty kind. Either our rear wheel was spinning or our front wheel was lifting. In addition, there is quite bumpy asphalt with cracks and pebbles. 😱 And it doesn't get any better after the 2 km either. We must have been at the limit 4 or 5 times. But to be honest, you also have to say: If you climb 1,000 meters in 10km, then you can only do it with beastly inclines. 😉
A highlight, well, of a special kind. 😉 I can therefore not recommend the GC606 either uphill or downhill. In the future we will probably drive the "Valley of Tears" via the GC210 and prefer to take on the additional 400m from Artenara to Ayacata. They don't hurt like the beastly GC606 ramps.
If you want to continue happily touring with your cycling partner: Make a marriage contract beforehand!🤣

Views of Roque Bentayga
Highlight • Natural Monument
Located within the volcanic caldera of Tejada at 1,414 meters above sea level, it is known for its basaltic pitons. The first settlements of the Guanches, the aboriginal people of the Canary Islands, were in this same area of the Nublo Rural Park.

To go to Maspalomas, I do not recommend it 👎because you will have to go back the way you came because the one way to Maspalomas is cut off👎🤦
