Grab your trekking poles and get ready. La Palma has plenty of routes through enchanted forests and volcanoes 🌋.

The Caldera de Taburiente, the Roque de Los Muchachos, the hiking routes on La Palma are unique and special! We like trekking, but doing it in front of such a landscape is different.
Stargazing tour La Palma
Did you know that La Palma is one of the best places to see the stars? ⭐ If you like Astro-tourism, imagine doing it at an altitude of 1,300 metres where the clouds are below. The whole sky is clear and there is no room for light pollution.
La Palma weather
La Palma, or the beautiful island, is the island with the most rainfall of all the Canary Islands. This is due to its altitude, as its central mountain range of over 2,000 metres collides with the clouds causing rain.
This is not so bad! Thanks to its climate, the island has green landscapes ⭐ that make it even more beautiful and that you can enjoy on all La Palma excursions.
In the Canary Islands the weather is good all year round 🌞 (60 - 73,4 ºF on average yearly), but in La Palma, you will need some warm clothes in autumn and winter (October-March), especially in the evenings.
