Hiking in La Palma

La Palma, often referred to as ‘la isla bonita’ (the beautiful island), is an excellent destination in the Canary Islands for hiking. Its enchanting landscapes and welcoming atmosphere make it a top choice for walking enthusiasts, who are even honoured with a bronze statue dedicated to walkers who come here from all over the world.

The island’s floral forests and rugged volcanic terrain create a stunning backdrop for outdoor adventures. From winding trails through greenery to panoramic views of dramatic cliffs and deep ravines, every trek offers a feast for the senses. The blend of natural beauty makes La Palma a perfect holiday destination for anyone seeking an escape into nature.

But it’s not just the scenery that captivates visitors, La Palma’s rich colonial history and strikingly preserved architecture offer something to satisfy every traveller’s curiosity. Its charm is immediate, and one visit is all it takes to understand why this island has earned its beloved nickname. With each step you take on one of our La Palma walking holidays, you’ll uncover more of the island's unique magic.

Our Holidays in La Palma

We have carefully designed all of our La Palma walking tours to ensure you see everything this little island has to offer. 

You’ll walk through ancient green laurel forests and admire staggering volcanic landscapes, before meandering through the picturesque streets of its 15th-century capital city, Santa Cruz de La Palma. Plus, you’ll be rambling the island with the help of one of our friendly and informative leaders.

La Palma is known as one of the steepest hiking locations, but the rewarding views make even its most challenging walks worth the extra effort. In fact, we’d go so far as to say that they really are the trip's high point.

Why not explore both La Palma and La Gomera in a single holiday? Ramble Worldwide offers a 16-night itinerary that combines these two stunning destinations in the Canary Islands, giving you the opportunity to extend and enrich your walking adventure.
