The climb to Femés

The classic one. It's a real climb, but at the top you get the viewpoint with two islands in front of you. The one you tell everyone about.

This is the ride people talk about afterwards. It climbs properly from the coast up to the village of Femés, in the Los Ajaches mountains in the south of the island.

The reward is at the top: from the viewpoint by the chapel you can see Playa Blanca, the whole Rubicón plain and, on a clear day, Fuerteventura across the Bocaina strait.

Tip

If you're not sure your legs are up for the climb, an e-bike makes it a lot easier — no shame in riding with a motor.
