Hiking trail through Breña Alta
This route is a wonderful walk through meadows and pastures with beautiful views of the east side of La Palma, in the municipality of Breña Alta. We will walk through chestnut and laurel forests, crossing five ravines and six sacred springs decorated with crosses that invite us to take a break. These are captivating landscapes, with spots that encourage us to linger.
In addition to the lush Canarian laurel forest, chestnut trees, an introduced species, have also spread throughout this area, and in the rainy season, we find many mushrooms. From October to January, La Palma is a paradise for mushroom lovers and gourmets.
We will walk along 8 kilometers of easy terrain, except for the somewhat tiring initial climb of 350 meters. Otherwise, this is a hiking route that does not present any major difficulties. After 1.5 hours of walking, we arrive at a spring and resting place in the middle of the laurel forest; a wild and romantic spot. Towards the end of the route, we cross a traditional agricultural landscape and finally arrive at a typical La Palma bar where you can have coffee, beer, and, if you wish, something to eat.
As an optional visit, there is a museum in the San Pedro area dedicated to tobacco, the cultivation of which remained a source of income for the island until the late 1990s.
