What to take on this route
Plenty of water, food, warm clothes, a rain jacket, a hat and sun cream, hiking boots and a charged phone. Check the weather and tell someone your route. The route climbs to 660 m and it gets chilly up there: take a sweatshirt too. And if you want to wear La Palma, our island T-shirts.

Before you go
- Closure of the section between the Camino de La Quinta and the Ermita del Jesús up to the recreational area of Fuente del Toro and will also directly affect all those short-distance trails that use this section of the GR in their development.
- A few crossroads are encountered where caution is required. However, the greatest difficulty, especially if the route is walked in the opposite direction to that described in this guide, is the tremendous height difference posed by the Laderas de Amagar zone (almost 600m).
- After heavy rain, take care on the steepest sections and below cliffs: there may be damage to the trail.
- There are buses of adequate frequency all day long.
- All year round.
- Protected area: Monumento Natural del Barranco del Jorado. Paisaje Protegido del Barranco de Las Angustias
