La Palma
Nature
The small island has a great variety of vegation.
This is because of mountains reaching up to 2400m and
greatly differing humidity in and outside a low cloud layer which
constantly drifts through the rainforest zone.
Santa Cruz
Capitol of La Palma.
Roque de los Muchachos
The highest point on La Palma is Roque de los Muchachos with 2426m.
It hosts the largest observatory project in Europe.
Los Tilos to Fuente Cordera via Casa Del Monte
Very impressive trip through the rain forest up an old and forgotten channel worker's path.
From Casa del Monte another path follows the water channel through many partially wet and narrow tunnels to Fuente Cordera.
Using the unmarked worker's path to get from Los Tilos to Casa Del Monte is somewhat dangerous, officially discouraged and exhausting. I went through
5l of water during the entire trip.
