Hike without the heat

Mild temperatures make this Canary Island a year-round destination, but it’s especially beautiful in spring. The rusty-orange volcanic terrain blooms with flowers between February and April, transforming it into a blanket of colour. Hiking is an enjoyable way to experience the spectacle, walking through the lunar landscape and exploring the sand dunes of the Corralejo Natural Park.
