    Trail description

    Starting from the church in Guía de Isora, the trail takes you up through the streets of this lovely town and onto the path. After about 2 km (1.2 miles), you will see the turn-off towards the village of Aripe (PR-TF 70.1). Follow the PR-TF 70 Guía de Isora - Tágara - Boca Tauce trail upwards, past some old tile ovens, fruit drying areas and threshing fields until you come to the village of Chirche (PR-TF 70.2). Veer left and you will reach the square of Chirche. From there, the trail takes you through vineyards and bush to La Era de Las Vistas. As you come out of the pine forest of Tágara, you will be rewarded with stunning views of the Niágara ravine, all the way to Boca de Chavao. You will then be walking at the foot of the mighty rock formations until you come to the end of the trail: Boca Tauce.
