Arrival to Firgas and time for coffee and visit to its historical center (beautiful water fountains - cascades, church of San Roque, old gofio mill and Paseo de Canarias Street with the representations of all the 7 Canary islands)
Walking tour of the Valley of Azuaje: first, with nice views, you will descend the slope of the ravine until you will reach the ruins of the old spa hotel of Azuaje. From here you will have a lot of fun following the river - sometimes jumping the stones from one side to the other one, climb 2 small rocks (with the help of ropes installed; it is not difficult) and crossing small jungle-like areas. Afterwards, you will ascend the ravine and have nice views again to finish the walk in Firgas, arriving from the other side. The valley is very peaceful and you will see many Canarian endemic plants on your way.
