Description

What an incredible road! It's a secondary road that climbs from Galdar up to the GC 21, just before Artenara. Despite this, the quality of the asphalt is very high, and the various small villages it passes through at the start don't spoil the driving experience at all — quite the opposite. It starts with a barren landscape, then as you climb the vegetation becomes greener and more lush, up to the conifer forests typical of the higher altitudes of Gran Canaria. There aren't many points of interest along it, unless you enjoy long walks on the hills, but it remains a true pearl among the lesser-known roads.
