More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The engine settles into a steady thrum as you roll away from resort roads and into wide, rutted tracks—Canarian pines lean over the trail like watchful guides, and the island’s wind pushes at your jacket as if testing your grip. Over the next four hours the quad slips across farmland tracks, navigates shale and packed dirt, and rises toward viewpoints where the south’s sun-baked slopes and the north’s green valleys sit in sharp contrast.
