Today you’ll discover the serene Isla de Lobos, a small, almost untouched paradise offering a uniquely peaceful natural setting. At the start of the day, you’ll have an included transfer from Villaverde to Corralejo, where an included ferry will take you to the island.

Once there, you’ll explore the island section of the GR 131, a route that transports you back to the time when the island’s first inhabitants collected seal skins to make footwear. This scenic walk offers a unique insight into both the history and natural beauty of the island.

Back on mainland Fuerteventura, you’ll first take the included ferry from Isla de Lobos to Corralejo, and from there another included transfer will take you to the starting point of the trail in the charming village of Lajares, located between El Cotillo and Corralejo.

The GR 131 then begins its descent southwards, skirting the base of La Arena volcano, around 10,000 years old and the youngest volcanic formation on the island. Following the Camino Natural, you’ll soon reach the outskirts of La Oliva, a village rich in traditional Canarian architecture, where thick-walled white houses recall the time when La Oliva was the island’s capital between 1834 and 1860. The walk finishes in Villaverde, where you’ll spend the night once again.

Today you’ll explore the interior of Fuerteventura, crossing volcanic landscapes filled with history and mystery. The route leads to Tefía, passing by the imposing Montaña Sagrada de Tindaya, a solitary mountain rising 400 meters above the surrounding terrain. At its base, more than 300 foot-shaped rock engravings have been discovered remnants of the ancient Majo culture that once inhabited the island.

After leaving Tindaya, the GR 131 climbs along ancient volcanic slopes to the Monument to Miguel de Unamuno, commemorating his exile in Fuerteventura during the dictatorship of Primo de Rivera. From the summit, you’ll enjoy spectacular panoramic views of the ocean on both sides of the island, an ideal moment to take in the vastness of the Atlantic.

A gentle descent finally leads to the village of Tefía, where you’ll spend the night and rest after a day full of history, nature, and breathtaking scenery.

From there, the route begins a steady climb toward one of the highest areas of the island, leading to the Guise and Ayose viewpoint. Here you’ll see the impressive sculptures representing the ancient Guanche kings, along with one of the widest panoramic views of inland Fuerteventura, a perfect spot to appreciate the island’s volcanic character and vastness.

After an included transfer from Pájara, you’ll start in Betancuria, where the trail begins with a climb toward the nearby peaks, quickly leading into undulating terrain that alternates ascents and descents, adding variety to the day.

The route continues with a descent alongside the dry riverbed of the Río Palma, whose underground waters sustain the Vega de Río Palma, a surprisingly fertile area that stands out for its greenery in contrast to the surrounding arid landscape.

From there, you’ll begin another ascent to the Las Peñas viewpoint, one of the highlights of the stage. On clear days, you can enjoy wide views over inland Fuerteventura and even see Gran Canaria on the horizon.

After descending from the viewpoint, the path leads through the quiet village of Toto, before continuing on to Pájara. Its welcoming atmosphere and traditional charm provide the perfect finish to a varied hiking day filled with captivating landscapes.

Following the GR 131, today’s stage takes you through one of the most remote and awe-inspiring landscapes of Fuerteventura, where the island’s wild character is on full display.

You’ll begin with an included transfer to the summit of El Cardón, near Monte Melindraga, the starting point of the day. From here, the trail follows a narrow ridge heading west, where rugged terrain and a sense of vastness set the tone for the route.

As you progress, you’ll enjoy wide panoramic views over a harsh yet strikingly beautiful landscape, almost untouched and deeply atmospheric. The path then descends gradually toward the Ermita de San Benito Abad, near La Pared.

At this point, the scenery changes dramatically, opening into a broad sandy corridor that crosses the island from east to west. This unique landscape, formed by the meeting of mountain ranges separating the north and south of Fuerteventura, provides a truly spectacular finish to the stage.
