Malpaís de Güímar

Highlight (Segment) • Natural Monument

The Spanish word Malpaís means "wasteland" in German, but that doesn't really matter. A Malpaís is a special, volcanic landscape: here you can still clearly see the original lava flows …

From the vantage point at the foot of the volcanic cone of the Montaña Grande you have a perfect view of the Malpaís Güímar and the waters of the Atlantic Ocean.

The "shortcut" from the big round is also nice, is very good to walk and also offers a great look in a magnificent nature

Impressive viewpoint at Punta de Güímar: The waves of the deep blue Atlantic meet here with the black lava cliffs.

Medium-length route, but very beautiful. Interesting vegetation and lava fields.

Translated by Google

Very interesting area and the volcanic rock is so diverse. Automatically my thoughts wandered to La Palma.

Very nice hike. Not recommended when the sun is shining, ZERO! Shadow! For us it was cloudy and a pleasant 22°.

Translated by Google

Surprisingly beautifully laid out circular hiking trail with a culinary finale at El Puertio. Good footwear recommended

Translated by Google

Leisurely walk, also ideal for (with) children. Highest point a little over 100 m, most of which takes place at about 13 m above sea level. Yes, nothing spectacular but a nice change and always great views of the sea. Don't be put off by the amount of rubbish when entering the parking lot, it's only like that there. Just try it. Have fun

Translated by Google

It's manageable, but definitely not for people who aren't good on their feet. It's very uneven in places, there's a lot of rubble and deep sand. Shoes with a sturdy sole are important.

Translated by Google

A very nice and diverse tour. You should have a hat and water as there are no shady areas. Beautiful landscape and inspiring views of the sea.

Translated by Google

Very nice hike, trail very close to the ocean, to do absolutely!!
