Wer kommt mit 015786296209. With the heavy iron key that looked like a prop from a Harry Potter film, Pedro opened the old wooden door and I peered down into the well. As my eyes adjusted to the darkness of the room, I could see the gentlest of vibrations on the surface of the water. Just as Wolfgang had said, it was the ancient beating volcanic heart of La Gomera. I thanked him and went back into the bar to rejoin my friends and my beer. Whether or not the legend was true, there is no doubt that if youre coming to the Canary Islands and looking for an authentic link to the islands ancient past, youll find it all around you on this most effervescently green isle. Located just 20km or so to the west of Tenerife, La Gomera is easily accessed by a regular ferry link from Los Cristianos. Depending on whether you get the hydrofoil or the standard version, it will take either 40 minutes or an hour and a half. La Gomera looks a bit like the upturned half of a huge green orange that has been broken into rough segments. A permanent rainforest of sorts resides across much of the upper reaches of the island, which are almost permanently shrouded in mist. Its unlike any other of the Canaries that people are used to seeing, with their characteristic lunar landscapes and bare volcanic fields. The striking Roque de Agando at sunrise. Photograph: Getty Images Here in La Gomera, all is lush – from the vast forests of banana trees that run to the shoreline at Santa Catalina to Europes largest primitive forest, in the Unesco-listed Parque Nacional de Garajonay. Along the roadsides, exotic papaya fruits heave alongside banana trees. It looks as if the island could keep the entire population of Spain in fruit for the rest of their lives. We were fortunate to run into Wolfgang and his French Moroccan-born wife Danielle near the start of our stay on La Gomera. With three friends, we had rented a house close to the village of Hermigua on the northeast of the island, just a 15-minute drive along the spectacular, twisty and perfectly-tarred road from the main town of San Sebastián. Roomy terrace The central meeting point in Hermigua is Pedros bar, with its views over the valley from the roomy terrace outside. Every night there was a themed music night. The first was a French night, where accordion-playing singers brought many of the French-speaking tourists and everyone else out to enjoy a folk-like, convivial atmosphere that turned the place into a little piece of Montmartre. The second night was a Cuban night where we were treated to live music from a smashing band that wouldnt have been out of place on a pavement in Havana. The infectious music got everyone up and dancing around the terrace in the warm evening air. The climate in La Gomera is a little bit different to most other Canary Islands too. The Canaries are known for the variation in temperature between the balmy middle of the day and the cooler evenings but, on La Gomera, you can experience cool spring weather requiring layers and rain gear up in the mountains while, by the seashore, high summer reigns supreme, with temperatures in the mid-20s and seawater warm enough to comfortably bathe in. The next morning, I travelled north, near the beautifully formed and perfectly located village of Agulo, to a lookout area known as the Mirador de Abrante. Here, the car park ends in stunning red rock cliffs and a restaurant. Inside, the restaurant has a narrow glass floor extension to give you a dizzying perspective of the extraordinary views over the sea and colourful Agulo below. The restaurant is also well known for the fact that some of its staff communicate through the fascinating whistling language El Silbo. Waiter Fabio was only too happy to give us a demonstration on site, asking us to tell him something in English or Spanish and then translating it into El Silbo. The language was brought to the Canaries by the Guanche people and has survived Spanish colonialism; it is now a mandatory subject for all Gomerans in both primary and secondary schools. Quiet paradise Wolfgang and Danielle had bought a house nearby and habitually spend most of the spring living in this green and relatively quiet paradise. After a first day of hard walking along the steep slopes of Hermigua and El Cedro, it was they who advised us to try the more user-friendly trail (10km return trip) from Pastrana to Benchijigua on the south side of the island. Mist descends over the Roques de San Pedro at Hermigua. Photograph: Getty Images We parked the hired car at the tiny village of Pastrana before heading north along the Barranco (ravine) de Benchijugua – a deep, rocky indentation where the waters flow at a variety of volumes depending on the weather. We started off at around 11am, and the weather was warm and sunny. The spectacular views towards the sea and up into the mountains were superb and the trail was well signposted and provided decent challenges for the average walker. Along the way, we passed a number of isolated, deserted villages and hamlets before arriving at Benchijigua. It was a very quiet walk as well, and we only encountered a handful of walkers on the way. Benchijigua didnt have anything by way of refreshing pitstop – just a few unoccupied holiday homes and a closed church – but it was a truly gorgeous spot with panoramic views in all directions from its elevated position looking down on a series of ravines and across to craggy hillsides on three sides. The atmosphere is low-key, with a complete absence of the lager-lout brigade or the post-Leaving Cert party platoon At this point, the weather was positively autumnal and even in three layers and with our hoods up, we had to keep moving to stay warm. By the time we got back to Pastrana, the afternoon sun was beating down on us once more. It being a Monday, the one restaurant in the hamlet was closed so we got in the car and drove down into the resort town of Playa de Santiago. There are plenty of hotels and accommodation centres here to cater for all kinds of visitors, but the atmosphere is decidedly more low-key than most resorts youll find in the Canaries, with a complete absence of the lager-lout brigade or the post-Leaving Cert party platoon. Sun and sand it has a-plenty. Comprehensive package Valle Gran Rey offers a more comprehensive package for sun-worshippers looking for that little bit less Canary-like Canary Island sun resort, while the fine beaches at San Sebastián have the advantage of being next to the islands largest town. This is where Christopher Columbus stopped over before his historic voyage to the New World, and much of the town has managed to retain an old-world atmosphere. Its a place to wander around and take in the Spanish colonial vibes of its colourful, authentic streets. The town of San Sebastián in La Gomera. Photograph: Getty Images Back at Hermigua, we were invited to spend an evening at Wolfgang and Christines lovely home – a chilled-out abode with a lot of traditional touches built on two levels. Upstairs, the tiled roof terrace covered the entire footprint of the building and was designed to cater for the outdoor life, complete with kitchen corner, large stone table and outdoor loo – all with superb views of lush mountains and blue sea and backing onto a tropical garden. As the sun went down behind the mist-shrouded mountains, Wolfgang enquired if I had been able to witness the “beating heart of La Gomera” – if Id seen for myself the pulse from the long-dormant volcanoes that formed the Canaries in the ripples on the surface of the water of the well at Pedros. “Yes, ” I said, uncertainly. “I think I did. ” He winked and raised his glass. “Then the beating heart of La Gomera will stay in your soul forever. ” Conor Power travelled with the support of the Spanish Tourism Office. and La Gomera Tourist Board.

With an area of 370 square kilometres (140 sq mi) it is the third smallest of the eight main islands of this archipelago. It belongs to the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. La Gomera is the third least populous of the eight main Canary Islands with 21, 136 inhabitants. [2] Its capital is San Sebastián de La Gomera, where the cabildo insular (island council) is located. Political organisation [ edit] La Gomera is part of the province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. It is divided into six municipalities: Name Area (km 2) Population (2001) 3] Population (2011) 4] Population (2018) 5] Agulo 25. 36 1, 127 1, 148 1, 067 Alajeró 49. 43 1, 465 2, 005 2, 006 Hermigua 39. 67 2, 038 2, 076 1, 805 San Sebastián de la Gomera 113. 59 6, 618 8, 943 8, 945 Valle Gran Rey 32. 36 4, 239 4, 547 4, 484 Vallehermoso 109. 32 2, 798 2, 961 2, 829 Totals 370. 03 18, 285 21, 680 21, 138 The island government ( cabildo insular) is located in the capital, San Sebastián. Geography [ edit] The island is of volcanic origin and roughly circular; it is about 22 kilometres (14 miles) in diameter. The island is very mountainous and steeply sloping and rises to 1, 487 metres (4, 879 ft) at the island's highest peak, Alto de Garajonay. Its shape is rather like an orange that has been cut in half and then split into segments, which has left deep ravines or barrancos between them. Ecology [ edit] The uppermost slopes of these barrancos, in turn, are covered by the laurisilva - or laurel rain forest, where up to 50 inches of precipitation fall each year. The upper reaches of this densely wooded region are almost permanently shrouded in clouds and mist, and as a result are covered in lush and diverse vegetation: they form the protected environment of Spain's Garajonay National Park, which was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1986. The slopes are criss-crossed by paths that present varying levels of difficulty to visitors, and stunning views to seasoned hikers. The central mountains catch the moisture from the trade wind clouds and yield a dense jungle climate in the cooler air, which contrasts with the warmer, sun-baked cliffs near sea level. Between these extremes one finds a fascinating gamut of microclimates; for centuries, the inhabitants of La Gomera have farmed the lower levels by channelling runoff water to irrigate their vineyards, orchards and banana groves. Natural symbols [ edit] The official natural symbols associated with La Gomera are Columba junoniae (Paloma rabiche) and Persea indica (Viñátigo. 6] Culture [ edit] The local wine is distinctive and often accompanied with a tapa (snack) of local cheese, roasted pork, or goat meat. Other culinary specialities include almogrote, a cheese spread, miel de palma, a syrup extracted from palm trees, and "escaldón" a porridge made with gofio flour. The inhabitants of La Gomera have an ancient way of communicating across deep ravines by means of a whistled speech called Silbo Gomero, which can be heard 2 miles away. [7] This whistled language is indigenous to the island, and its existence has been documented since Roman times. Invented by the original inhabitants of the island, the Guanches, Silbo Gomero was adopted by the Spanish settlers in the 16th century and survived after the Guanches were entirely assimilated. [7] When this means of communication was threatened with extinction at the dawn of the 21st century, the local government required all children to learn it in school. Marcial Morera, a linguist at the University of La Laguna has said that the study of silbo may help understand how languages are formed. [7] In the mountains of La Gomera, its original inhabitants worshipped their god, whom they called Orahan; the summit and centre of the island served as their grand sanctuary. Indeed, many of the natives took refuge in this sacred territory in 1489, as they faced imminent defeat at the hands of the Spaniards, and it was here that the conquest of La Gomera was drawn to a close. Modern-day archaeologists have found several ceremonial stone constructions here that appear to represent sacrificial altar stones, slate hollows, or cavities. It was here that the Guanches built pyres upon which to make offerings of goats and sheep to their god. This same god, Orahan, was known on La Palma as Abora and on Tenerife and Gran Canaria as Arocan. The Guanches also interred their dead in caves. Today, saints, who are worshipped through village festivals, are principally connected with Christianity. But in some aspects, the Guanches god-like idealising of Gomeran uniqueness plays a role as well besides their pre-Christian and pre-colonial implication and shows strong local differences. [8] Christopher Columbus made La Gomera his last port of call before crossing the Atlantic in 1492 with his three ships. He stopped here to replenish his crew's food and water supplies, intending to stay only four days. Beatriz de Bobadilla y Ossorio, the Countess of La Gomera and widow of Hernán Peraza the Younger, offered him vital support in preparations of the fleet, and he ended up staying one month. When he finally set sail on 6 September 1492, she gave him cuttings of sugarcane, which became the first to reach the New World. After his first voyage of Discovery, Columbus again provisioned his ships at the port of San Sebastián de La Gomera in 1493 on his second voyage to the New World, commanding a fleet of 17 vessels. He visited La Gomera for the last time in 1498 on his third voyage to the Americas. The house in San Sebastián in which he is reputed to have stayed is now a tourist attraction. Genetics [ edit] An autosomal study in 2011 found an average Northwest African influence of about 17% in Canary Islanders with a wide interindividual variation ranging from 0% to 96. According to the authors, the substantial Northwest African ancestry found for Canary Islanders supports that, despite the aggressive conquest by the Spanish in the 15th century and the subsequent immigration, genetic footprints of the first settlers of the Canary Islands persist in the current inhabitants. Parallelling mtDNA findings (50. 1% of U6 and 10. 83% of L haplogroups. 9] the largest average Northwest African contribution (42. 50% was found for the samples from La Gomera. [10] According to Flores et al. (2003) genetic drift could be responsible for the contrasting difference in Northwest African ancestry detected with maternal (51% of Northwest African lineages) and paternal markers (0. 3–10% of Northwest African lineages) in La Gomera. Alternatively, it could reflect the dramatic way the island was conquered, producing the strongest sexual asymmetry in the archipelago. [11] Festivals [ edit] The festival of the Virgin of Guadalupe, patron saint of the island, is the Monday following the first Saturday of October. Every five years (most recently in 2013) is celebrated the Bajada de la Virgen de Guadalupe (the Bringing the Virgin) from her hermitage in Puntallana to the capital. She is brought by boat to the beach of San Sebastián de La Gomera, where several people host her, and transported throughout the island for two months.

Hallo Hortst, wirklich ganz toll Deine Videos. Habe mir schon ein paar Tips von Dir geholt. Könntest Du mir bitte die Koordinaten vom großen Wasserfall senden? Das wäre wirklich ganz lieb 😇 Vielen Dank 🙏.
The whistlers makina. BUEN TRABAJO Chapeau. The whistlers corneliu porumboiu. Magistral, pervivencia de lo nuestro allá donde vayamos. Me interesa ayudarla de todo corazón 🙏🏼. It is a great video. I have been 5 times on La Gomera and was fishing in all of the major freshwater lakes. I had seen huge carps myself. BTW, fishing in the freshwater lakes is free but you do need a permit from islands goverment. Years ago it was a struggle to receive it but I did in the end. Almost noone fishes in these lakes, so there is quite a lot of fish. There is lots of black bass but Tilapia and catfish can also be found. Black bass and tilapia I caught myself. Catfish was a reported by a local fishermen.
The whistlers room. Sick I love a bit of fishing 🎣🎣. Cristi is a middle aged undercover police officer with mommy issues who is trying to find the location of some stolen money. So he goes to a remote island to learn a whistling language that will allow him to communicate with the criminals from a distance. There he rekindles a relationship with his old flame and his priorities change. As both the criminals and his colleagues are onto Cristi what choices will he make to come out clean of his predicament? A clever game of cops and robbers ensues.
Summing up this multi layered, not always coherent plot, is not an easy task. THE WHISTLERS takes a long time to get going but it's many elements come together building up to something special. Heavy on movie references it is heavily inspired by Tarantino movies, although the style of the cinematography is rather dull.
The script on paper must look great, but this is the case where a writer should let go of his work and let someone else direct. Cornelliu Porumboiu helmed 13 films but seems to be still searching for his directing style. While all the cast do their job well, the motives of their characters for the majority of the film are obscure to say the least.
But if this is the originality you are looking for THE WHISTLERS is for you. With good timing and a genuine sense of wit it is a rewarding experience for those who will stick with it until the end.
The jeep juddered to a halt on a dusty red mountain path 400 metres above sea level. With a foot to spare at the side of the track, I looked down as if into a kaleidoscope that had broken open. Below was an intensely green and fragmented world of giant palms, banana trees, huge ferns and mossy boulders blanketed by flowering vines. Beyond, the colour of mercury, the Atlantic Ocean seemed to stretch into infinity. A Cleopatra butterfly floated lazily by, its yellow wings tipped by tiny pink spots. It was early December. I was little more than half-a-days travel from wet-and-windy London, and just 50 minutes by ferry from the egg-box apartment resorts of southern Tenerife. But standing spellbound on the side of that mountain, on the lesser-known island of La Gomera, I felt light years away from the chaos and brashness associated with the Canary Islands more obvious tourist destinations. Bathed in sunshine and silence, with only sea, sky and nature for company, I could have been in a different century. The second-smallest of the seven Canary Islands - near-circular and with a diameter of only 25 kilometres - La Gomera feels like the island that time forgot. You can drive through soaring ravines and sleepy mountain villages down to deserted rocky beaches without encountering a single traffic light. On that mornings helter-skelter ride into the northwest of the island, the landscape had seemed at times near-biblical in its stillness. And the rituals of rural life playing out along the wayside were as though from another era. The Mirador de Abrante has a glass floor projecting out from the clifftop above Agulo, La Gomera (Alamy) Photo: Alamy • The best hotels on Tenerife I passed farmsteads on ribbon-thin dirt shelves, where labourers in straw hats were piling huge avocadoes into wheelbarrows. I watched vintners, balancing like tightrope walkers on near-vertical terraces to tend frothy arcades of La Gomeras rare Forestara grapes. Returning southwards, through the hilltop village of Chipude, I steered through a throng of local women gathering for a gossip around the islands only remaining municipal washing place. The Garajonay National Park is a stunning wilderness of thick forest and mountain (AP) Photo: AP This wasnt my first trip to La Gomera, or into its enchanting interior. But getting to know the island is like peeling the layers from an onion. Each visit brings with it new discoveries, and this one was proving to be no exception. • In pictures: 20 destinations for 2016 The previous day, a local friend had introducedmes to one of the islands quirkiest hidden treasures – a tiny white-painted chapel perched, a dizzying 950 metres above sea level, on a cliff edge at Guará, near the abandoned village of Gerián. The chapel was built in 1962, she explained, by a farmer called Don Cándido Dorta. His cow was sick, and hed promised God that hed build a place of worship as a thank you if the animal survived its illness. The cow perked up; Don Cándido kept his side of the bargain, and a fiesta is now held there every October in joint memory of man and beast. “What youd call a 'win-win situation, ” my friend concluded brightly. Villages sit between steep mountain slopes and walls of cacti (Alamy) Photo: Alamy Id arrived in La Gomera by ferry. The runway of the islands airport is too short for international flights, which helps explain the absence of tourist hordes – yet the ferry ride is a delight in itself. Head for the viewing deck as the boat begins its approach, and youll get an amazing first glimpse of the scale of the islands landmass. Ringed by volcanic cliffs rippled with sandstone strata of vivid aubergines and golds, it rises from the ocean to a height of almost 1500 metres: an inscrutable primeval mountain. The village of Agulo sits alongside the island's dramatic coastline (Getty) Photo: Getty Its not hard to see why director Ron Howard chose La Gomera as a key shooting location for his latest film In the Heart of the Sea, set in 1820, which tells the story of the doomed ship Essex, sunk by a sperm whale in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Viewed from the water, the craggy coronet of sheer rock that encircles the island could be any time, any place. Likewise, with only a scattered handful of small low-key settlements and no coastal road to link them, the seaboard is almost startlingly void of light pollution. Thered have been no chance of a Coca-Cola sign hoving into view as the ship went down. "The church and Customs House have been destroyed and rebuilt countless times since Columbuss day, in the wake of pirate raids. " The port of San Sebastián, where the ferry docks, is – to be honest – a bit of a let-down. Not even La Gomeras greatest fan could claim to feel inspired by the hotchpotch of industrial buildings and hillside sprawl of functional housing (albeit in ice-cream colours) that greets new arrivals to its capital. But the place has a special story to tell, as Christopher Columbuss last port of call in 1492 before his epic sail to the Americas. A stroll through pretty Calle Real, in the oldest part of town, becomes a positive pile-up of Columbus “moments”: the gloomy church where, allegedly, he made his last confession before the voyage; the well in the patio of Customs House, from which he supposedly took the water to baptise the New World, and wooden-balconied “Casa de Colón”, billed at his former lodgings. All this is, of course, shameless smoke-and-mirrors: both the church and Customs House have been destroyed and rebuilt countless times since Columbuss day, in the wake of pirate raids. His so-called “house” was first built over a hundred years after his death. But – as we agreed over tapas under Indian laurel trees in the main squares convivial Las Carabelas café - youve got to admire the Gomeros breezy disregard for detail when it comes to making the most of their unexpected claim to fame. • Five best things to do on La Gomera Set high above town, in lush, sub-tropical gardens, is San Sebastiáns elegant Parador de Gomera, a graceful Canarian-style mansion with mesmerising views across to Tenerifes Mount Teide, the highest peak in all of Spain. (Perhaps strangely, Gomeros regard Mount Teide as part of “their” island. “Its because we see it nearly all the time, ” my friend explained later in the visit. “For people on Tenerife itself, its shrouded in mist more often that not. ”) The parador is one of the most popular hotels on the island, especially among British visitors. Otherwise, tourists-in-the-know tend to head south to the small fishing port of Playa de Santiaģo, La Gomeras sunniest spot, or westwards to the swathe of unspoiled black sand beaches in awesome Valle Gran Rey. Playa de Santiago has been my chill-out spot of choice on most visits. Laid out like a tiny Canarian village, the cliff-top Hotel Jardin Tecina is a haven of tranquillity – flower-filled and drenched in birdsong. I began this latest visit there, lapping up the luxury of breakfasting among palm trees and repairing to my gorgeous sea-view balcony for a glass of cava each sunset after my daily inland safaris. For the last few days of my stay, though, I decided to head westwards to majestic Valle Gran Rey (the name means “Valley of the Great King”) by popular consent the most beautiful of La Gomeras valleys. The drive from Playa de Santiago to Valle Gran Rey, is a cracker – another roller-coaster ride, this time through deep ravines tiered with palm trees and almost lunar expanses of rocky plateau where weirdly shaped volcanic plugs mark the sites of extinct volcanoes. On the way, I diverted slightly to revisit the islands astonishing Garajonay National Park, an ancient laurasilva rainforest cloaked in silvery mists and dense with subtropical vegetation - too glorious to bypass, no matter how many times youve visited La Gomera. And then it was downhill all the way, through corkscrew twists of sherbet-coloured villages, to Valle Gran Reys rugged run of wild-and-wonderful beaches. The Parador de Gomera is one of the most characterful places to stay on the island (Alamy) Photo: Alamy The dappled sky ahead exploded like popcorn into a bubbling pink sunset as I dipped down to the waterfront. The towns palm-lined strip of pretty neighbourhoods was buzzing with activity. First settled by (mostly German) hippies in the 1960s, Valle Gran Rey has a laid-back atmosphere all of its own – charming, peaceful and ever-so-slightly dippy: like Glastonbury-on-Sea. Diamond-scored palm tree-trunks were plastered with posters advertising live music gigs or offering reiki healing. A battered van, parked by a makeshift stage, sported a painted rainbow and a splattering of magic mushrooms. But the overwhelming feel of the place was of a single, good-natured community. Middle-aged hikers wearing walking boots and BillnBen hats rubbed shoulders round market stalls with youthful New Age travellers in dreadlocks and floaty pre-Raphaelite regalia. People walked their dogs. Cafés and pizzerias began to fill up with crowds of chattering locals. For now, this was my journeys end. I headed for a bar, ordered a Dorado beer and relaxed into a different kind of timelessness. On a nearby bench, overlooking the seafront, an elderly Gomero man was playing an accordion.

The whistlers film. Where: La Gomera, Canary Islands, Spain When: February 2-8 Distance: 140 km with ~8500m elevation gain. Conditions: 10-20C. warm. clear to overcast sky, windy Lighterpack: Photos album: all taken with a Galaxy S9+ and edited poorly. I focussed more on video. Video: More than photos I took video with the new camera (see below) but I just haven't gotten around to edit it into a video yet. Let me know if there is interest and Ill send you the link once I have finished. Overview: I wanted to get out of the European winter and not only find a place with nicer weather, but also with longer daylight hours. The Canary Islands are located to the west of Marocco in northern Africa. About a 4. 5 hour flight time from Germany and fit both criteria. La Gomera is one of the smaller islands of the archipelago which is of vulcanic origin and very rocky. Its famous for its deep gorges and valleys. The highest point is a little less than 1500m above sea level. The winds blow clouds over the islands, so the mountains catch a ton of moisture, while the other side is dry. This leads to a diverse landscape. The island is famous as a hiking spot. There are trails everywhere, including two long distance ones. The GR 131 crosses the island, while the GR 132 circles around its perimeter. You may wanna call it a coastal trail, but it constantly changes from sea level to the mountains, and there is hardly any flat ground anywhere. Going up and down I had about 8500m in elevation gain total (plus going back down) Usually there were 1-2 big climbs every day. I had a great hike! The hiking was hard, I am not in good shape. But I had almost no foot trouble (pre-emtively taping critial spots paid off) which made walking enjoyable. Resupply was easy as you pass by a shop or bar every day (at least at my pace) and I found camping spots easily. My time plan worked out well too. I highly recommend this hike! Bring water and trekking poles. Day 1: San Sebastian to Playa De Caleta. About 24k. I started hiking shortly after 8 a. m. First I followed some streets up the first hill that lead out of San Sebastian, after about 3 kilometers I ended up on single trail. The weather was just lightly clouded over the city, but it was very windy. Looking up into the mountains ahead the clouds looked darker though. The trail was very nice, it keept climbing constantly, very rocky, some sections were rather dry, but then you turn a corner to find trees and bushes. Great views into the ravines that are all over the island. I passed a guy hearding goats and he did use a local whistling language to communicate over long distances. After about 11k the trail meets a dirt road. And that was the route for the next 10k or so. It was easy walking, and the views remained good, but my brain kept shouting "you're road walking" at me all the time, which diminished my experience. Also there was a water pipe running along, probably making the thought worse. This area was a national park, so there was little going on besides the road. I saw the first of many abandoned old buildings. The highest point offered great views towards the village of Hermigua and the massive mountain face hovering above it. I wanted to go to the village originally, to top up my supplies. But my maps showed a beach a little before that saying there were toilets available. I thought I could check it out. The last few kilometers before the beach were back on single trail along the coast, which I appreciated a lot. Playe de Caleta actually had a littel chapel, a (closed) restaurant, multiple toilets (with light and toilet paper even) and running water and even showers! There was no indication if the water was potable, but I had seen water lines leading here, so I thought I might just drink it. And in the worst case, the toilet was right there. There were also a bunch of cats. I'm not a cat person, but I assumed there would be no mice or rats. I ended up pitching my tarp as a lean to behind one of the shower buildings, because it was really windy. A family parked their RV on the parking lot and stayed as well. I had the Atlantic as a giant white noise generator and a magnificent view onto the island of Tenerife with the Teide vulcan towering above. The heavy wind made sleeping a little uneasy, but I was fine. First night on trail is always the hardest. Day 2: Playa de Caleta to the ridge above Vallehermoso. About 24k After leaving the beach early I passed Hermigua and Agulo along the coast. Staying at la Caleta was a good idea. It would have been difficult to find a camping spot near these villages. Then the trail lead me up on the first big climb of the day. It was nowhere as gradual as the road the day before so it was a lot harder. For the first time I went into actual forest too, so the landscape kept changing a lot. After descending on the other side the trail splits up at a reservoir. I decided to follow the 3. 1. stage leading me directly west to Vallehermoso instead of stage 3, going around the village to the north. This alternate leads around the Roque Cano, a very prominent rock, so I think chosing this route was a good idea. Also I got into Vallerhermoso just early enough to buy some supplies at the local store before it closed (being a Sunday afternoon. I took a break in the town square, eating chips and drinking coke before I gathered all my strength for the next climb. I knew this was getting me into the mountains, where I could expect high winds and maybe some clouds but I went anyway. After a hard climb I found a sheltered spot in an opening right next to the trail. This wasn't very stealthy but I expected to be remote enough to not be bothered by anyone. The night was not so great. I wasn't really cold, but not really warm either, and my hands were either too cold (when outside the quilt) or too warm (when inside) or just felt numb when I had them between my legs. Weird. Day 3: to Valle Gran Rey. About 18k. I woke up hearing two female voices, even before sunrise. WTF! Is somebody coming. At least not right away, so I got up and packed my things together. Just as I had finished somebody walked down the trail, but he didn't see me, just standing between some trees with my pack. He would have seen the tarp for sure. When I started walking, I turned the first corner and there was an entire work crew of like 5 people walking towards me - all with hard hats on. They even commented on me being here A very narrow win for stealth camping. I reorganized and had breakfast near the Chorros de Epina (some natural springs) and then crossed the ridge to descent towards Alojera. This had me walk through some of the greenest areas yet, lush meadows full of flowers with palm trees! But when I climbed out of the village on the other side, it was already much dryer. Amazing how just crossing over one line of mountains can change the area. However, this climb destroyed me! It was really really hard. I stopped at pretty much every switchback! I can't really explain it, it was just not good. Again, the view was great. After the initial ascent the trail stayed high up over a valley. Then it continued through forest to another chapel. Beautiful. I talked to an English hiker doing day hikes and a French girl, also thru hiking. I saw a guy with ax Exos and solar pannel too. Later the route headed towards Valle Gran Rey, over much more arid terrain. For the first time I spent a lot of time walking along the terrases that were built all over the island. They are not in use for growing crops any more. And there were more abandoned buildings. The long final descent into the city was nasty: Uneven, steep, in full sun light. I hated it and was very slow. I wasn't feeling so great since the climb earlier and this gave me the rest. Near the end a trail runner passed me by, 5 times my speed, while I could barely make it even with the support of my trekking poles. That was demoralizing. I decided to stop and booked a room in the village. My mood improved when I got a free coke from a soda machine! Room was nice, with a kitchen even. Took a shower, did a thru-hiker "wash all the things. in the sink) bought food at a store and cooked myself french fries for dinner! Then it was time to rest. Day 4: Valle Gran Rey to Arguayoda. About 23k. The day started with scrambled eggs and some bread I put in the oven (no toaster. So I was on to a good start! Today the big climb was right after leaving the city. I carried extra water, more than 4 liters, and I could feel it. I tried to deliberately pace myself better which worked quite well, the climb went much smoother than the previous. I met another German thru hiker who taught me that the overcast sky, that had appeared over night, wasn't actually clouds (it had looked weird to me anyway) but sand from the Sahara dessert. At the end of the climb there was another chapel, where I found the French hiker from the day before resting. We ended up hiking the next few kilometers together. For once the trail did not just drop down again, but rather slowly descended back to the sea. This was nice walking, even though it was extremely windy at some spots. I took off my hat, cause I feared it would just get blown off my head right away! More deserted areas, it sometimes looked like the terrases were used to activly grow rocks! Passed some abandoned banana plantation and down to a beach. French girl decided to camp there, while I pressed on. After some unpleasand dirt road I came to La Dama, a village full of banana fields. Luckily the local bar was open. I wasn't hungry but gladly accepted some soda and bought another 1. 5l water bottle. I noticed that I drank quite a bit, even though it wasn't all that hot. The trail lead back down to the next beach and up again on the other side. I found a sheltered spot near some old wall in the terasses and made camp. I used the bivy and no tarp and it was just fine. The place was totally quiet. I watched the stars at night, and tried to remember star formations. But its been a loong time since I knew more about these. Day 5: Arguayoda to Imada via Alto de Garajonay. After passing Arguayado the trail dips into the Barranco de la Negra, which I found to be one of the most scenic gorges of the island. High up were some caves turned into living spaces. Then just a narrow valley with signs of human habitation, terrases and more old houses, but also great vegetation. It had some canyon like feeling to be honest. For once I didn't feel bad during the climbing cause I was awed by the landscape! Next destination was Alajero where I got some bread and cheese and a full cold 1. 5l bottle of Coke Zero, giving me brain freeze. I did the math and realized I had an extra day to finish, so I decided to leave the GR132 and head inland to the highest peak Alto de Garajonay. The weather was clear, and no clouds up there, so this looked like the perfect day for it. There is an entire national park around the peak in the center of the island. That meant doubling the altitude I was on, and I was already on the highest point of the GR132! Since camping is explicitly forbidden in the park I looked for accommodation nearby and found a hotel on the way. So I mostly road walked an hour to Imade and was able to check into the hotel. I left most of my gear and just made a quick summit run in day pack mode. Carrying basiclly just water (the Coke didn't last long I was still drinking a lot. The inital ascend was steep but once I was out of the gorge the terrain got flatter, there were meadows and bees buzzing around. The center of La Gomera is almost entirely covered in forrest. The top of the mountain offered great views in all directions. There are some ancient structures from the natives and it was well worth the detour. And for once I could say: It's all downhill from now! The trail back to Imade (I followed a loop route from the Rother guide) sent me through more forest and then along some really scenic wild trail that I loved. Made it back to the hotel just as the sun set. There was cold soda, hot showers and I had a great day! I think this was a good addition to the coastal route! Day 6: Imade to Morales. About 21k. Instead of backtracking to Alojera and then descending to the coast from there, I chose the walk down Barranco de Guarimar, which runs parallel to the other route. Again, a very scenic spot, very green too. Further down it turned into a road walk unfortunately but it wasn't the most travelled road. At the coast is the village of Playa de Santiago. I timed the day to get there for lunch, which had me eat more fries at a restaurant. Then I got my last resupply and went back to the GR132, turning back inland. After passing a golf course and a beach it went uphill again. The terrain was quite open and the entire side of the island is just covered in terrasses. Even though the ascent was quite moderate the hiking felt exhausting. Again I found myself just drinking a lot of water. I put a hankerchief in my neck for sun protection. It wasn't hot, but it felt like desert hiking. Along the route I first passed the abandoned village of Contreras and then I continued to an even bigger lost village, Morales. I decided to pick one of the terrasses to camp, again just using the bivy. No need for the tarp really. I celebrated my last nigth on trail with a can of Fanta I had carried from Santiago. A herd of sheep passed through in the evening, but luckily they were gone when I went to sleep. Day 7: Morales to San Sebastian: About 10k. The trail went back down the coast. As it always does. There is an isolated hotel on a beach, you can only get there hiking or by boat. They ask hikers to walk around it, and so I found myself walking along the rocky beach, in plain view of tourists that were having breakfast outside! Then it was time for the last real climb. I took it easy cause I did not have a lot of water left. The next beach, Playa de la Guncha, is really scenic. There are more caves and I think I saw some people in there. The final stretch to San Sebastian took longer than I thought. There was always another corner and another and another. But at about 1pm I finally got there. And had completed the Gr132. I went to the beach where I used the showers, changed out of the hiking cloths and went to the ferry terminal. Gear talk: I used a new pack, a Berghaus Fast Hike 45. Loved it. It's a very flexible framed pack. I removed the foam pad and internal pocket, but used the hip belt. For the summit hike I removed the hip belt too. Pack carried great. Pockets were easy to reach. Shoulder pockets had room for me phone and camera. I guess my max load out was 10-11 kg? Will use again! Also: 45l was of course much more than I really needed, but its the smallest framed pack I own. Having the extra room made packing just really easy and at resupply I could just throw stuff into the pack. I like that! Also new: DJI Osmo pocket camera. This thing is tiny! And light! And really easy to use. I think this works really well as an UL video camera. I have to admit I'm not the greatest video guy (yet. so others may have more expert opinions. The footage looks good, the audio is mostly okay, but terrible in wind. If my video will suck its mostly my fault as filmmaker. MLD Bug Bivy 2 another first use. Liked it much better than the Borah I used before. Much more roomy, the net wasn't in my face. I like the bathtub floor, although I couldn't really test it much. The high side pannels are doing well. I need to work on the attachment system though. I had these Moment lenses for my smartphone, and never used them once. Too busy playing with the Osmo Pocket I guess? Will give them another try. Hydrapak Softflask 2l: Had this for 1. 5 years or so. It still makes all water taste horrible! And the tap water wasn't great to begin with. Im done with this! I need to go back to a Platy! Trowel: Bought a new trowel and never had to use it. Guess given the rocky nature of the island this saved me from a frustrating experience. Powerbank I keep using a 20. 000 and never need this much. Especially since I used my phone way less than usual. Instead of using the continous gps tracking I just looked at it when I was unsure about where to go, and to see distances. The battery lasted a lot longer with these changes. Casio retro watch. Another way to safe battery. The trail had these markers and with a regular old watch I could still calculate my progress and speed. I had the same model probably 30 years ago. What goes around comes around.
Super woman! Wow. Imagine how relieved they felt once they knew how to speak 😅. Visits from family are priceless. Glad you had a fantastic time! Thanks for sharing.
The whistlers movies.
