Isola quasi rotonda, con una superficie di 370 km quadrati, La Gomera è la seconda isola più piccola dell’arcipelago delle Canarie. Ha una popolazione di circa 20.000 abitanti, quasi la metà dei quali vive a San Sebastián de la Gomera, mentre i restanti vivono in piccoli paesi sparsi su tutta l’isola.
La parte centrale dell’isola è formata da un altopiano, a circa 1000 metri di quota, che ospita una laurisilva, patrimonio dell’UNESCO. La laurisilva è una foresta con piante in predominanza del genere delle lauracee, come per esempio alloro e agrifoglio, che un tempo ricopriva grandi aree del bacino mediterraneo.
Nell’altopiano si trova l’Alto del Garajonay, punto più elevato dell’isola a quasi 1500 m, che degrada verso il mare in profonde valli chiamate barranchi. L’orografia dell’isola è molto impervia e le differenze di dislivello molto marcate, fatto che causa la presenza di un grande numero di microclimi e paesaggi, nonostante la ridotta dimensione dell’isola. Si parte infatti da paesaggi quasi desertici a livello del mare per passare a “oasi” con palme e piante secche a quote medie per poi finire alla muschiosa laurisilva a quote più elevate. Le parti più alte dell’isola tendono a fermare nebbia e nuvole, che forniscono alla foresta l’acqua necessaria attraverso la condensa.
La sua natura varia, i bellissimi paesaggi e i centinaia di chilometri di sentieri che si snodano tra le sue valli e i suoi pendii rendono La Gomera una perfetta destinazione per una vacanza all’insegna del trekking. In questo post trovate informazioni utili su come scoprire La Gomera a piedi e dettagli sul nostro trekking ad anello di 5 giorni: il percorso completo e le varie tappe.
Come raggiungere La Gomera
Si può raggiungere La Gomera con un traghetto da Tenerife. La maniera più veloce è prendere un volo per l’aeroporto di Tenerife Sud (TFS) e da lì andare al porto di Los Cristianos, che dista solo 15 km. Dal porto di Los Cristianos partono i traghetti per la Gomera, con due tratte disponibili: una per San Sebastián de La Gomera e l’altra per Valle Gran Rey. La traversata dura circa un’ora.
Ci sono due compagnie di traghetti con rotte e frequenze diverse: Fred Olsen Express e Naviera Armas. Vi consiglio di cercare la tratta più comoda per voi su un sito generale, come ad esempio directferries.it.
Il nostro trekking ad anello di 5 giorni a La Gomera
Organizzare questo trekking ha richiesto un po’ di tempo: con 5 giorni a disposizione non sapevamo se fosse meglio prediligere un punto di partenza fisso e pernottare sempre nello stesso hotel, oppure optare per un tour di più giorni a tappe.
Alla fine abbiamo deciso di tentare il giro de La Gomera completamente a piedi, con pernottamento in 4 posti diversi. Per pianificare il nostro giro ad anello ci siamo basati sui due trekking già esistenti sull’isola — il GR 131 e il GR 132 — adattandoli a 5 giorni di cammino. Nella mappa sottostante vedete il nostro percorso e a seguire una breve descrizione di ogni tappa.

In questa tappa siamo andati da San Sebastián de La Gomera fino a Imada, idilliaco paesino di poche anime incastonato tra le rupi dell’isola. La tappa è molto lunga e faticosa per via del dislivello, ma passa per luoghi incantevoli come la famosa Roque de Agando e per ottimi punti panoramici.

Perché scegliere La Gomera come destinazione trekking?
Questo trekking di 5 giorni a La Gomera si è rivelato un vero e proprio toccasana: ci si può immergere nella quiete della natura incontaminata, nel suo silenzio e nei suoi suoni, dimenticandosi lo stress lavorativo della vita quotidiana. La varietà dei suoi paesaggi rende interessante esplorarla a piedi, notando piccoli dettagli, bellissimi anche da fotografare. Inoltre offre livelli di difficoltà per tutti, da brevi giri ad anello a percorsi più impegnativi e con dislivelli più ardui da affrontare.
L’isola non è stata ancora presa d’assalto dal turismo di massa e i pochi turisti che la visitano sono per lo più devoti all’attività fisica. Durante le nostre camminate abbiamo incontrato alcune coppie e un paio di gruppi che esploravano l’isola sui suoi sentieri. Consigliamo quindi questa destinazione a tutti gli amanti del trekking e l’escursionismo per la sua autenticità.

Bravi!
Bel giro e bei posti, descritti brevemente ma con precisione.
Ottmo post.
Ciao.
Grazie Loris! I post più specifici con la descrizione dettagliata di ogni tappa seguiranno 🙂
Bellissimo itinerario! non sono mai stata alla Gomera, però sicuramente farei qualche escursione di questo genere per conoscere questa isola cosi particolare. Sicuramente prenderò spunto.
Grazie, Erminia! La Gomera si vive al meglio camminando, secondo me! Consiglio un trekking di questo tipo a tutti gli amanti dei cammini, non ne resteranno delusi.
Davvero bellissimo visitare La Gomera in questo modo! Se ti devo dire la verità, questa zona non mi ispirava, ma mi stai facendo cambiare idea
Mi fa davvero piacere. Grazie del commento, Alice!
Ho sempre pensato che La Gomera valesse una visita, il tuo itinerario di trekking per l’isola mi ha fatto venire voglia di fare un viaggio per vedere questa bellezza Canaria. Che percorso che avete fatto, stupendo !
Grazie mille per il commento! La Gomera non è molto conosciuta o presa in considerazione. Un po’ perché è piccola, un po’ perché è adatta solo ad un certo tipo di turisti. Per amanti della natura e del trekking solitario è il top 🙂
