Today marks the pinnacle of the week—both in terms of challenge and elevation.

This demanding climb involves a tough 2,000-meter elevation gain. Upon reaching the summit, we’ll be rewarded with a thrilling descent to Agaete port, where we’ll catch a ferry for a picturesque 90-minute journey to Tenerife. The crossing provides breathtaking views as we set off on the next stage of our adventure.

We will be aiming to take the 18:00pm ferry across to Tenerife.
