During the route you will be able to admire characteristic elements of the coast of Buenavista del Norte: from columnar disjunctions to formations generated by the erosion of salt or stone roses. In addition to deposits caused by highly explosive eruptions and tsunami deposits generated by the gravitational landslide of La Guancha valley to Icod, or places as emblematic as the lightning, generated by sea erosion.

The following landmarks will be visited on this route:
