Among volcanic trails, endless beaches, and serene nature.

The surroundings are much more than a landscape: they are a natural space to move at your own pace, breathe deeply, and reconnect with the essentials.

MONTAÑA ROJA

A 171-metre volcano rising by the sea. Its ascent is gentle, its views unforgettable. It forms part of a 166-hectare protected reserve with unique biodiversity.

The Bocinegro

Lesser-known route where old bunkers are still hidden among the rocks. History and nature intertwine.

NATURAL POOLS

Small pools shaped where lava once met the sea. Near Los Abrigos, they invite a serene swim in a quiet, little-known corner of the coast.

Montaña Pelada

Circular trail through sand, lava, and sea. A peaceful route leading to hidden coves and lunar landscapes.

At reception, we can help you choose routes, book activities, or simply recommend the best spots to watch the sunset.

The soul of the place can also be felt in the small things.
