- Day 1
  Los Cristianos to La Gomera
  Start in Los Cristianos, Tenerife and take the evening ferry (6:45 PM) to La Gomera. A fellow traveler shares: "La Gomera is a jewel of an island. Lush and tropical feeling in parts and barren in others. It feels very authentic and not too touristy." Your hotel is just a 5-minute walk from San Sebastian port but be ready to carry your luggage.
- Days 2-3
  San Sebastian & Garajonay National Park
  Visit the Columbus sites in San Sebastian including the well where he drew water before his American voyage. Take on a challenging hike through Garajonay National Park's ancient Laurisilva cloud forest. A recent hiker notes: "The ascent to Alto de Garajonay and descent through the cloud forest was magical." The 10.5km trail takes about 4 hours with 300m ascent. Wear shoes with good grip as the paths can be rocky.
- Day 4
  Hermigua & Black Sand Beaches
  Visit northeastern Hermigua for a 10km coastal walk to Playa Caleta. You'll walk through banana plantations and deep gorges before reaching volcanic black sand beaches. Plan for 4 hours of hiking with 400m elevation gain. Walking poles will help with rocky descents.
- Day 5
  Free Day Options
  Choose between a 9km hike from Arure village to Valle Gran Rey along the Risco de la Merica plateau or go whale watching. One visitor mentioned: "The whale watching trip arranged on our free day was fantastic."
- Day 6
  Vallehermoso to Agulo
  Take on a challenging 14km hike from Vallehermoso to cliff-side Agulo. This 5.5-hour trail passes Roque Cano rock formation with clear-day views of Mount Teide. A walker shares: "The high level walk to Agulo was fabulous - both the ascent and descent."
- Day 7
  Mount Teide National Park
  Catch an early morning ferry back to Tenerife to beat the Teide crowds. Drive to Mount Teide National Park for a 4km circular walk around Roques de Garcia. A visitor notes: "The final day walk on Mt Teide was exceptional - a chance to see a unique landscape." You can take a cable car ride to the summit for €27 return but book ahead.
- Day 8
  San Miguel de Abona
