Hidden Trails of Fuerteventura

Hidden Trails of Fuerteventura Overview

A lovely centre-based walking holiday on the colourful island of Fuerteventura, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in the Canary Islands.

The charming island of Fuerteventura lies just 100km off the North African coast, and alongside its beautiful landscape, you’ll find year round sunshine, endless sandy beaches and the most stunning coastline in the Canary Islands. Fuerteventura is little known to walkers, but has a wonderful variety of trails meandering through pretty African-style architecture, and volcanoes so colourful, they resemble mountains of exotic spices. Plus the island was declared a UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve in 2009 due to an abundance of endemic flora and fauna. On this centre-based walking holiday you’ll explore Fuerteventura on foot, whilst staying in the small fishing village of La Lajita. Walking highlights include the Betancuria Mountain Range and walking in the footsteps of the ‘Guanches’ (Fuerteventura’s first inhabitants) around the lava flows of the Cuchillos de Vigan and Volcan de Jacomar. You’ll also explore the Jandia Nature Reserve, discover a magical Saharan-style desert landscape and enjoy a boat trip to the tiny island of Lobos, nestled between Lanzarote and Fuerteventura. Experience staying in a small fishing community and discover a surprising side to Fuerteventura as you walk the very best trails on the island.  Looking for a two week Canary Islands holiday?
