From the place called Las Casetas (km8 on the GM1), the path, after a few meters, leaves the cement track on the left (Ruta 31 Enchereda/Cuevas Blancas) to pass above the beehives and climbs towards the ridge where we find the GR132 which comes, on the right, from San Sebastien and continues on Hermigua, on the left.

Continue below the village, then along the caves which served as shelter for the animals of the village. Volcanic rocks explode into colors and shapes. After the pass and then the barranco de Zamora and an old place of arboreal settlement, the path goes up on the Cheremía strip. From the flat, a path goes up to the right and joins the one at the top of the valley. Straight down to the bottom of the valley and San Sebastián.

Description

Cette randonnée est un voyage dans le temps vers Cuevas Blancas, village de maisons troglodites. Elle se caractérise par l'abondance de grottes, dont certaines ont été longtemps habitées, et par ses panoramas fantastiques avec en fond l'océan et l'île de Ténérife  avec son volcan, le Téide majestueux du haut de ses 3 800m. Y abondent les euphorbes (tabaibas, cardones) et les echiums (tajinastes).
Cette randonnée emprunte la crête sud et est du barranco de Majona classé Parc Naturel, pour sa richesse et sa biodiversité.

Cette randonnée peut se faire à partir de San Sébastien avec la guagua (horaires).
