What to expect
You'll collect your buggy after hotel pickup and begin on paved roads climbing toward the viewpoint, where you'll pause for photos of the surrounding terrain. The route winds down through vegetation-lined trails before hitting rougher off-road sections that demand more concentration and skill. Buggies are automatic and straightforward to operate, though you need a valid car licence and closed shoes. The pace is steady rather than frantic, giving you time to take in the landscape between technical patches. Expect dust, sun exposure, and a genuine sense of piloting your own machine through backcountry Gran Canaria.
Good to know
A valid Class B driving licence is mandatory. Wear closed-toe shoes and bring sunscreen and water. Not suitable for pregnant travellers, those with spinal injuries, or significant heart conditions. Children must be at least 1.35 metres tall. Reduced mobility participants welcome by advance request.
