With cobbled streets, colourful houses and colonial architecture, the town exudes a tranquil atmosphere, perfect for travellers looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. Must-see sights include the Torre\u00f3n del Conde, a 15th-century fortress that was key during the Age of Discovery, the Plaza de la Constituci\u00f3n, a social centre surrounded by historic buildings, and the church of Nuestra Se\u00f1ora de la Asunci\u00f3n, noted for its Gothic style. In addition, the port of San Sebasti\u00e1n has a notable historical significance, as it was the departure point for Christopher Columbus' voyage to America in 1492.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_tta-panel\" id=\"1711988988711-06000319-1de3\" data-vc-content=\".vc_tta-panel-body\"><div class=\"vc_tta-panel-heading\"><h4 class=\"vc_tta-panel-title\"><a href=\"#1711988988711-06000319-1de3\" data-vc-accordion data-vc-container=\".vc_tta-container\"><span class=\"vc_tta-title-text\">Valle Gran Rey<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div><div class=\"vc_tta-panel-body\"><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_inner vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-6\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div  class=\"wpb_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_center wpb_content_element wpb_animate_when_almost_visible wpb_top-to-bottom top-to-bottom\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<figure class=\"wpb_wrapper vc_figure\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vc_single_image-wrapper vc_box_shadow_border  vc_box_border_grey\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jardinesdelacalera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/valle-gran-rey.jpg\" class=\"vc_single_image-img attachment-full\" alt=\"Valle Gran Rey\" title=\"Valle Gran Rey\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jardinesdelacalera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/valle-gran-rey.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.jardinesdelacalera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/valle-gran-rey-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-6\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element wpb_animate_when_almost_visible wpb_top-to-bottom top-to-bottom\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p>Valle Gran Rey, a central tourist destination on La Gomera, stretches from the mountains to the beach, offering a varied experience for visitors. Although it is not crowded with tourists, it is perfect for strolling, relaxing on the beach and sampling the delicious local cuisine, which includes biscuits and palm honey. This place has impressive cliffs surrounding the bay, providing breathtaking views, and serves as a starting point for exploring the trails of the Garajonay National Park. Highlights in Valle Gran Rey include Charco del Conde, Playa la Calera and Playa del Ingl\u00e9s, the latter accessible after a short walk and popular with nudists. Playa de las Vueltas is famous for allowing you to see manta rays swimming very close to the shore, an incredible experience for travellers. In addition, the altitude of central La Gomera offers numerous viewpoints with spectacular views, such as the Mirador de Cesar Manrique and the Mirador de la Curva de Queso.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_tta-panel\" id=\"1711989147753-e420865a-3a56\" data-vc-content=\".vc_tta-panel-body\"><div class=\"vc_tta-panel-heading\"><h4 class=\"vc_tta-panel-title\"><a href=\"#1711989147753-e420865a-3a56\" data-vc-accordion data-vc-container=\".vc_tta-container\"><span class=\"vc_tta-title-text\">Vallehermoso<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div><div class=\"vc_tta-panel-body\"><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_inner vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-6\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div  class=\"wpb_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_center wpb_content_element wpb_animate_when_almost_visible wpb_top-to-bottom top-to-bottom\">\n\t\t\n\t\t<figure class=\"wpb_wrapper vc_figure\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vc_single_image-wrapper vc_box_shadow_border  vc_box_border_grey\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jardinesdelacalera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/vallehermoso.jpg\" class=\"vc_single_image-img attachment-full\" alt=\"Vallehermoso\" title=\"Vallehermoso\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jardinesdelacalera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/vallehermoso.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.jardinesdelacalera.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/vallehermoso-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t<\/figure>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-6\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element wpb_animate_when_almost_visible wpb_top-to-bottom top-to-bottom\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<p>Vallehermoso stands out for its charming historic quarter, one of the most beautiful in La Gomera, which is reason enough to explore this municipality. We recommend starting your walk from the Plaza de la Constituci\u00f3n square and going through the neighbourhoods of Triana and Vegeta, inspired by those of Gran Canaria, with typical Canarian houses, until you reach the imposing Church of San Juan Bautista. Another highlight is the hamlet of Tamargada, surrounded by palm groves and picturesque landscapes, where you will find the impressive Ermita de la Virgen de la Caridad del Cobre. Food lovers should try the almogrote, a p\u00e2t\u00e9 made with red mojo sauce and local cheese, typical of the area. You can also visit other hamlets such as Epina, El Cercado and Arguamul, the latter known for a Buddha abandoned on the road because of its weight, which has become a local curiosity.

To get there, from the village of the same name you can take a small, easy trail that starts at the Chorros de Epina restaurant. After approximately 15 minutes of descent, you will reach the Hermitage of San Isidro Labrador, and a little further on you will find the seven jets of Epina. This place is surrounded by local legends and is popular with those seeking love or healing properties. According to the legends, clear and calm water promises happiness in love, while murky water augurs misfortune. Drinking from odd or even streams is also said to have healing properties, depending on gender, and the seventh stream is especially beneficial for women wishing to become pregnant, a practice also performed by the island's ancient witches.

There are several routes to explore the forest, with the 3 km circular route from the Visitor Centre being the most popular and accessible. Due to the frequent presence of fog, it is advisable to wear suitable footwear and warm clothing.
