TREKKING LA PALMA

LA PALMA: THE ISLAND YOU WALK WITH YOUR HEART

There are places you visit… and others you feel. La Palma belongs to the latter.

This vertical island rises from the ocean like a world of its own: young, wild and ancient all at once, where every trail seems written by fire, forest and wind. There are no “similar landscapes” here; everything is unique.

In a single day you can walk under the humid shade of a laurel forest that feels prehistoric, pass through tunnels carved into the rock, peer into impossible ravines or walk across volcanic flows that still hold the warmth of the earth.
And at the end of each path, the same reward: silence, the scent of Canary pine, the force of the Atlantic crashing against walls of lava.

La Palma is a place for walking slowly but intensely. For those who believe travelling is not about collecting places, but living them. For those who enjoy feeling the terrain under their boots, breathing pure nature and discovering landscapes that change around every bend.

And when you explore it accompanied by a professional guide who knows every trail, every hidden viewpoint and every story the island holds, La Palma becomes more than a destination:
It becomes an experience that stays with you for life.

Welcome to La Palma.
Welcome to a trekking week unlike any other.
Welcome to Nortrail Mountains.

TREKKING WEEK IN LA PALMA

Una isla, mil paisajes. Una semanaOne island, a thousand landscapes. One week that changes everything. que lo cambia todo.

La Palma is not “visited”: it is discovered.
And during this trekking week we take you through the most spectacular, authentic and varied trails of the “Isla Bonita.” This is not a standard tour or a packaged product. It is an experience designed to walk, feel and be surprised every day.
Over seven days we combine volcanoes, humid forests, deep ravines, hidden waterfalls, black-sand beaches and breathtaking panoramas. Many travellers say it feels like visiting five different islands in a single week.
All guided by an AEGM professional, with carefully selected routes that are accessible, safe and impactful—perfect for travellers seeking something authentic, different, and well-guided.

WHAT AWAITS YOU THIS WEEK

Volcanoes that tell stories

You will walk along black ridges, recent craters and trails over young lava flows. The energy of the earth can be felt under your feet. Cumbre Vieja is a geological lesson in motion.

Laurel forests from another world

The north of La Palma is humid, deep and green. Hand-carved tunnels, mossy ravines and waterfalls make this area a true sanctuary of nature.

Secret ravines and waterfalls

We descend into canyons where water and lava have created unique forms. Places like Cascada de Colores and the hidden springs of the Caldera leave unforgettable images.

Cliffs that plunge into the Atlantic

In the east and northwest the island breaks into enormous walls that end in black beaches. Trails hang over the ocean with dramatic views.

Endless pine forests and panoramic trails

The Canary pine is part of the island’s soul. Its forests offer peaceful, bright and scenic walks.
