Itinerary description
9 km with 450 m ascent, rating 4 out of 5 stars
The part through the barranco (gorge) is really great. We planned to do a circular walk via La Brena, but after the second waterfall the trail was closed.
We went back a bit and took another trail uphill to La Brena.
When getting close to the parking again, the shortcut to the parking turned out to be closed as well, it was going through private property (indicated with a waypoint). We went around it via the asphalt road.
Retrospectively we should have taken the earlier option to descent, indicated with a waypoint.
The part from the parking to the second waterfall is described in the Rother walking guide Gran Canaria, hike number 69
