Spanish villas for rent
in this Landscape of Contrasts
 Many
owners will state that this island is full of contrasts.
This can clearly be seen in the climate which fluctuates
from hot to warm even becoming cloudy and rain torn
te clouds even appear as a water fall which disappears
once it has shed its rain. It is due to this rainfall
that the island is lusher and greener than its larger
sister islands of Tenerife and Fuerteventura.
Further contrasts are seen in the varying landscapes:
from the rugged and magnificent Mirador de la Conception
viewpoint with its range of Spectacular Mountain peaks
to the smooth, black, sandy beaches of Playa de los
Cancajos. The natural beauty of this island has been
recognised and yet it lives side by side with modern
technology in the form of the astrophysical observatory
which is located on the edge of the Caldera National
Park. It is no wonder that vacationers who holiday in

there is so much to see and experience.
So what has La Palma to offer the many tourists who
have arrived on the island and booked holiday apartments

discos and parties. This island is about appreciating
the natural landscape; it is about participating in
outdoor activities and for the more mature tourists,
it is also about quiet relaxation in breath taking and
peaceful surroundings whether it be in the Spanish villas

Take a Hiking Vacation
in Holiday Apartments to Rent in La Palma
The island is already well recognised as a place of
natural beauty and therefore was made a Biosphere reserve
in 1983. Its flora and fauna as well as its vast mountainous
regions, its waterfalls and volcanoes have brought many
tourists keen to appreciate and immerse themselves in
this exotic environment especially after a day relaxing
in their Spanish villas to rent in La Palma. Furthermore
to ensure this happens the locals have not been “behind
the door” in taking full advantage of this growing
cohort of holiday makers who have chosen to reside in
holiday rentals in Spain’s La Palma .
 There
are numerous hiking and walking tours organised by local
companies so tourists have the choice of the kind of
walking they wish to undertake as well as the type of
landscape they wish to enjoy. For example some tourists
may prefer to experience the volcanic route - Cumbre
Vieja. This is a 7 hour hike around 7 volcanoes so really
only the more experienced should attempt this challenging
route. The Marcos y Cordero route again is quite steep
but tourists have an opportunity to see some interesting
waterfalls; while others may enjoy the more verdant
landscape of the enchanted woods of Los Tilos, where
hikers can walk down down the gorge. These are three
of the many popular walks travellers to the island appreciate
and enjoy. Furthermore La Palma prides itself on its
many marked footpaths which interlace this extraordinary
island. These paths are clearly signposted in a range
of languages for the keen and enthusiastic tourist.
On these hiking trips, vacationers may choose either
to travel in the company of other like- minded tourists
or organise their own walk. There is even an opportunity
to drive to a set location and then take the footpath
from there. However no matter whichever decision tourists
make, there is no doubt that the views seen and the
whole experience within the particular landscape, are
all well worth the wait and the walk. Furthermore, after
a couple of hours of trekking in the beautiful landscape,
tourists will certainly appreciate a glass of wine and
a relaxation in their Spanish
villas to rent in La Palma.
