Was Sie erwartet
This is an iconic northern climb on La Gomera, starting from the terraced, banana-filled valley of Hermigua along the GM-1 and climbing up to the thrilling glass-bottom Mirador de Abrante hanging over Agulo.
The character of the road is defined by its steep switchbacks, red-soil landscapes, and dramatic northern exposure. Leaving Hermigua—historically connected across deep ravines by the ancient Silbo Gomero whistling language—you’ll skirt coastal curves near Agulo before climbing the valley walls. The route culminates at a cantilevered glass skywalk extending over a 400-meter drop, offering views of Mount Teide floating over Tenerife.
A deeply satisfying, technical climb requiring sharp focus on tight first-gear hairpins. Watch for occasional tour buses on the narrow access road, savor the contrast of red earth and deep Atlantic blue, and experience the journey on an agile, punchy adventure bike like the 2025 BMW F 900 GS.
