Hiking in La Gomera
More than 4000 hectares to discover
World Heritage Site in 1986
Garajonay National Park is home to one of the most valuable natural treasures of the island: the laurel forest. It is an ancient forest dating back to the Tertiary period, more than 66 million years ago, which, thanks to the high humidity and mild temperatures, maintains its infinite shades of green throughout the year and was recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 1986. Its name comes from the tragic Gomeran love legend between Gara and Jonay, the local Romeo and Juliet.every year, travelers travel through the nearly 4000 hectares of the park to live, connect with nature and experience the magic of this extraordinary forest.it has a clear vocation towards Ecotourism because it prioritizes conservation criteria over tourist use: small groups, preferably accompanied by an official guide, without generating negative impacts on the environment, economically supporting local services and eager to discover and appreciate what the protected area custodies.
