Today, I drove a bit further to hike up to Altavista mountain. Already along the hike, I had good views of the plateau of Acusa. So, I checked out this area (with is cave dwellings) as well. Continue reading Up to the high view!

Caldera de Tejeda the Third
In close proximity to my apartment, there are just so many nice hikes. Therefore, I decided not to spend too much time driving around to explore some area further away. Instead, I did another hike at the edge of the Caldera de Tejeda today. Continue reading Caldera de Tejeda the Third

Hiking above the Caldera de Tejeda
Today, I wanted to see more of the Caldera de Tejeda – and from higher up. So, I drove to Cruz de Tejeda, some 450 meters of altitude higher than the town of Tejeda itself. From there, I went on a nice circular hike along the ridge line, and down into La Culata. Continue reading Hiking above the Caldera de Tejeda

Hiking in the Caldera de Tejeda
I am currently staying in Tejeda, in the centre of Gran Canaria. This area is well-known for its gorgeous hikes, as I could experience today myself – even though I ended up on a different trail than I originally intended to take (due to a trail closure).

Into the mountains of Gran Canaria!
Today is my first “true” vacation day, and I said farewell to Las Palmas. After picking up my rental car, I made my way into the island’s interior, where I will spend the next few days. Mostly, I am planning to go hiking – because this area of Gran Canaria has lots to offer in this regard! Continue reading Into the mountains of Gran Canaria!

Empty Arucas, crowded Teror
Also today, I was drawn to places outside the city. I will spend the next week in Las Palmas anyway – mostly working, but hopefully I will also find some time for short explorations within the city. So, I decided to visit two nice towns a bit further away today: Arucas and Teror. Continue reading Empty Arucas, crowded Teror

Caldera from below and above
Today in the morning, I had something close to beach weather for the first time: No winds, and (almost) clear skies. Therefore, I decided to go hiking. Continue reading Caldera from below and above

Kick-off to a Workation on the Canary Islands
I am trying something new: I am combining work with vacation. So, I am spending the next six weeks on the Canary Islands – a bit over half of that on vacation, and the remainder working remotely. Continue reading Kick-off to a Workation on the Canary Islands

Sleepy Maribor
On the way home, I made a short stopover in Maribor today. It is a nice little town, but (to be honest) I expected a little more. Continue reading Sleepy Maribor
