Additional Information
  • Sports or trekking shoes (with a good grip) are mandatory and will be checked by the guide before starting the excursion. During our routes, we recommend mountain clothing or sports clothing.
  • In the period from April to September, rainfall is low, the temperature even in the highest part of the mountains is around 22 degrees, reaching up to 26 degrees in June, July and August. The T-shirt usually fits us well, but it is always good to wear long-sleeved clothing.
  • The months of October to March are a variable period of time and more frequent rains (we always try to avoid carrying out our excursions during rainy days, but sometimes the weather can surprise us). It is recommended (during the mandatory cold days) warm clothing with long sleeves (pants, polartec) and a waterproof jacket that can work perfectly as a windbreaker.
  • In case of force majeure that prevents the excursion from continuing or endangers the health or life of the excursion participants (weather conditions, etc.), the organizer reserves the right to modify the route or change it to another / another date, or cancel it.
  • Recommended minimum age for children: 8 years.
  • Considering that our lunch at the restaurant will be around 3:30 p.m. and your own way of eating, you can bring a light meal on your own, for example (fruits, energy bars, almonds, cookies, etc.). sandwich etc)

Excellent experience - If you like nice walk in the wood and to see Grand Canaria from above this hike is for you. Maciej is a very good tour guide with lots of good energy. I was picked up on time and the hiking was easy to medium difficulty going through the pines forest to the second highest pick of the island. The lunch after the hiking at the local village on the way back was really decent with lots of food choices. All in all very good value for money and excellent experience!

Great tour with a great guide - Maciej picked us up from the hotel first thing in the morning and showed us, in a group of 8 people, the peaks of Gran Canaria on a hike lasting around 4 hours. With his relaxed and cheerful demeanor, Maciej managed to make the day an unforgettable one in no time. We were given all the necessary information about the country and its people, as well as the history of Gran Canaria. And of course about the nature and fauna. We can 100% recommend the tour and will book the tour a second time as soon as we are back in Gran Canaria.

Excellent day walking the peaks of Gran Canaria - The whole day out from start to finish ran like clockwork. During the walk Maciej was careful to ensure that we went at a pace that suited all of the group with frequent stops to provide information about our surroundings. Afterwards lunch, which was good was in a local restaurant which was included in the price. A great day out, well worth the money. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and will definitely sign up again the next time we are in the area.

Beautiful scenery, great guide and delicious food - Had such a good trip with Maciej and the gang. From start to finish, everything was great. He communicated well and confirmed the pick up time the day before. I loved the drive up into the mountains and the bus was clean and comfortable. The trek itself was not too difficult, and he ensured he went at a reasonable pace to suit everyone, ensuring we had sufficient breaks between and time for a drink and had to 20 minute breaks in between walking. The views were spectacular and we were so lucky with the weather. He was friendly and charming throughout, telling jokes and stories along the way. Was nice to meet others also on the trip and get to know them as it was just a group of 9 in total. We finished off with a meal in a local restaurant which was superb and delicious, with plenty of choice for everybody. All in all, it was fantastic, great value for money and would recommend 😁

Amazing Views, Great Hiking Trip - 2 Hiking Trips with Maciej, Rainforest and Peaks of Gran Canaria. He is an excellent guide with a great knowledge on the area and habitat of Gran Canaria, he is also a good storyteller with a good sense of humour. Excellent two days out hiking finished with lovely food and drink out at restaurants included in the price of the ticket. Lovely to travel in small groups, 8 on our first day and 5 on the second. So much nicer than a larger group would have been, it was also nice to have conversation with others travelling in the group. We have lovely photos and memories from this trip, thank you Maciej.

A magical day - My husband and I did this hike with Maciej. We thoroughly enjoyed it. The views are spectacular and Maciej leads the small group at a pace that is suitable for all participants. He stops to provide info and insight and to take adequate breaks for water or snacks. We would highly recommend this hike to anyone looking for a beautiful hike and day out. Maciej is a very passionate and professional guide. The entire day was very well organized and communicated and ran perfectly on schedule.
