Itinerary description

Nice short hike around Gran Tarajal, Fuerteventura a very lovely secluded town with street art everywhere.

As it’s possible to park your camper for a night or two, almost everywhere on Fuerteventura, we decided to park close to this small town to check out the place and it’s surroundings.

We start by going steep uphill to Piedras Caídas where you have some great views. Back down we take the easy way and walk straight up the beach and the boulevard of Gran Tarajal.

From here to the harbor and another beach. From here we go back up to the higher part of the town as we end up at Plaza De La Candelaria. From here to the boulevard again to enjoy a late lunch and on our way back we pass some nice street art murals.
