La Palma is not only known for its beautiful, year-round mild climate – it is not for nothing that “eternal” spring – the island also offers a breathtaking landscape and plenty of largely untouched nature.

Not only the landscapes on the island, the villages have preserved their originality and cast a spell over the visitor. So that you can enjoy all this undisturbed, we have designed various hiking programs.
