Geocache Description:


START at : N 28° 43.589 W 017° 49.379 elev. 1888 m. This is the startingpoint for the hike to Pico de la Nieve at elev. 2238 m. From its flat top there is a great 360° view !

Don't miss this: it is just short extra, but with a bonus



From Pico de la Nieve the path towards Refugio de los Roques at elev. 2070 m. follows the cumbre/ridge surrounding the Caldera de Taburiente, often offering you spectacular views onto the clouds gathered inside the Caldera. And - of course - into the Caldera itself.

Beside the spectacular views you also pass a historical site with rockcarvings, which may date back several thousands of years: Petroglifo Tagoror. A magical place.

.

Wear good hiking boots and carry plenty of drinks!!

Small note on cache maintenance: Maintenance of this cache will be done by two german cachers who frequent the island and of which one spends the winter on La Palma: B44 and Samlee.
