If you travel across Gran Canaria by car or on foot you'll see why for yourself!

In the Barranco de los Cernicalos there are knee-deep grasses and a chuckling stream; the Barranco de la Aldea hides an emerald-green reservoir; the Barranco de Guigui opens out to an incomparable beach. These are but a few of the island's breathtaking ravines... and this is only the start of what you will find when out walking in Gran Canaria.
