Trail description
The Lomo El Centeno trail awaits you with stunning views over the Valley of Güímar, the city of La Laguna and the slopes of Anaga Rural Park. This traditional walk is an opportunity to discover some of the most significant species of local and endemic flora and fauna that typically inhabit the mountain tops. Moreover, hikers will be walking through the Protected Landscape of Las Lagunetas. The forest still shows signs of how it was once used to obtain resin from the pine trees to provide boats with a waterproof coating.
