Great hike, got to see pine trees (smelt refreshing), few different plants to see and the clouds as we hiked on a cloudy day, you can see other mountains around you when you’re slowly ascending. The hike isn’t hard it’s just a long walk, there are arrows painted on rocks to indicate which way to go. The view from the top would’ve been lovely if it wasn’t cloudy as we could see much around. But it was still an achievement to make to the top and back down by foot. Yes there is a military building when you reach the top, I know there is another summit on the same mountain but I’ve just ended up here.

Absolutely recommend this trip. The Guide, Selene, is such a good guide with excellent knowledge of everything. She also explained things on the way and suggested activities at every stop. Her English is excellent! I cannot commend her enough! The trip is worth every penny! Thank you!

We drove in from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, and our car GPS (plus also Google Maps) took us right to the parking lot. Just before you arrive, there is a separate parking lot to a historic well. Once you arrive in the little parking lot with the food truck, you can climb up just a little bit further to the penultimate viewpoint. Know that the time of day is going to mean your camera may be looking directly into the sun. There are no bathrooms on site. The drive there can be half the fun if you use the lesser roads!

Amazing views. Perfect in the morning to admire the views. I recommend after that visit to take the route (with breathtaking scenery) on way to the village of Tejeda. Reminded me of a smaller version of The Grand Canyon. Tejeda is beautiful to walk around too.

We visited the "highest point" of the island on a morning of travelling through the centre of Gran Canaria and what a view we had. The first third of the roads up from Màspolamas and final third were good but middle third very narrow in places so be careful. There are a fair amount of places to park at the top and then the views.....wow! We had a fairly clear day and the views across the island were amazing. Further to this, very clear views of Tenerife were great including being able to make out Santa Cruz even though it's over 60 miles away. We could also see La Gomera and to the East, Fuertuventra. Well worth a visit.
