Los Tilos Forest & Charco Azul Day Trip + Rum Distillery Tour
Los Tilos Forest & Charco Azul Day Trip + Rum Distillery Tour
Between 8 and 9:20 am, we'll pick you up from your chosen meeting point and start touring north-eastern La Palma.
To kick off our day trip, we'll visit Enamorado Waterfall. This naturally formed balcony boasts unparalleled views of the palm-covered mountains in this area. We'll see how this ecosystem gives way to the steep coastal cliffs and discover the legend hidden in the sculpture that crowns this viewpoint.
Next, we'll make a brief stop by the small Church of San Bartolo so you can have a coffee on your own before we continue with our day trip.
Once we're back on the road, we'll pass through the village of San Andrés and hop off the minibus for a short 30-minute walk. We'll admire its extensive banana plantations until we get to the beach in Puerto Espindola. From here, we'll make our way to Charco Azul's beautiful natural pools.
Our adventure will then take us to the Aldea rum distillery, where we'll discover how this drink is made from sugar cane. Afterwards, we'll visit the viewpoints of La Tosca and Fajana de Barlovento and take lots of fantastic photos.
You'll then have 1 hour of free time to get some lunch in Los Sauces before we reconvene and venture into the Los Tilos Forest Nature Reserve.
We'll pay a visit to the reserve's visitor centre to learn about the origins of this laurel forest and discover why its conservation is so important. As we walk along its leafy paths, we'll admire this ecosystem from the Tertiary period.
The day trip will come to an end between 3:30 and 4:30 pm back at the starting point.
Pickup
This tour includes pickup from different parts of Fuencaliente, Puerto Naos, Santa Cruz de La Palma, Los Llanos de Aridane and Los Cancajos.
Partial Closures
Due to a landslide in the area, access to the Los Tilos Forest is currently closed, so it will not be possible to visit its waterfall. Instead, we'll walk through the asphalted area of Cubo de la Galga, where we'll appreciate its laurel forest.
