A SOURCE OF LIFE AND NATURE

Visitors will enjoy Maspalomas as a place to practise activities and active sports. Its natural environment offers visitors the opportunity to choose the best way of having fun in their spare time, either if they like mountain biking, paragliding and climbing, or in the case they prefer trekking across paths which seem impossible.

Flying in a transparent sky, observing natural spaces which are extraordinary and unique in the whole world from the physical and biological point of view, challenging yourself to climb the rocky and rough Canary Island geography by classic climbing, practising boulder or canyon descending under an ever-lasting sun are some of the many opportunities which Maspalomas offers to the bravest and determined visitors.

The dream of flying is available in Maspalomas, by either taking advantage of the thermal currents or the dynamic conditions to fly. Any season of the year is excellent to fly through the sky of the crater Caldera de Tirajana and observe its remotest corners. Hand gliding or paragliding are the most common flying sports practised in Gran Canaria

Maspalomas can also boast about its unique sky for the sky observation. Its geographical location, close to the equator, along with its completely clean sky blue due to the trade winds, is the reason why stars do not twinkle and, therefore, nights are specially dark and, when the sun sets, staring at the sky will delight all visitors.
