Highlights
We head to Los Gigantes, a cosy village and one of the highest cliffs in Europe. The cliff is so imposing that the village even takes its name from it. Los Gigantes literally means The Giants.
Heading towards the giants, we pass the fishing port and coast of San Juan, among other places. We also take the time to enjoy, get supplied and drink a coffee.
After we go back to the south, we take the bananaclimb to Guia De Isora. Climbing from Playa San Juan to Guia de Isora with a bike comes with breathtaking views. As you pedal away from the coastal charm of Playa San Juan, the landscape transforms into a rugged terrain and lush vegetation.
