Itinerary description

This is my favorite walk in la gomera so far. It's Nacho1951's walk from la laja, just... not starting in la laja and going the other way. Why? Well... getting la laja from Valle Gran Rey is a 1.5 hour drive. By changing the start position it is only a 40 min drive. More time for walking :)

Bring your hiking boots and dont fear hights because there will be some steep descents in the first phase of the route to La Laja. The walk features a bit of everything: cliffs, forest, a village and so so many wonderful views of the various "Roques"

The times mentioned here are not fully acurate. The moving time is pretty close, but we had to slow down a lot in the mid phase due to an injury. So ecpect total time to be 4 hours, moving 3 hours.

    He realizado la ruta de la Laja a Bailadero el 18 enero 2021. Es una ruta para senderistas con experiencia en senderos dificiles y fuera de senderos. Ruta muy poco marcada y que desaparece en tramos. Facil perder la ruta. Muchos precipicios y zonas peligrosas, en especial con lluvia reciente, pero vistas espectaculares. La conexión de Bailadero a Agando por Reventón Oscuro, por el bosque humedo de laurisilva, es única.

    Me and the wife did this hike took tons of pictures on the way down. It is for sure more difficult on the way up as elevation is higher. It is for sire better to start at the bailadero as you kinda have to climb if you go the opposite way.
