The Doramas Rural Park is one inviting opportunity in north Gran Canaria. Pristine nature and agricultural areas blend into one huge attraction which neighbors upon several municipalities: Santa Maria de Guia, Moya, Firgas, Arucas, Teror and Valleseco. Ravines, springs, vegetable richness and small picturesque villages, as well as cultivated parcels fill an area of more than 3,586 hectares. One of the main highlights of the Doramas Rural Park refers to the Barranco Oscuro Nature Reserve which is, actually, located within Doramas.
The Viera y Clavijo Botanical Garden is the largest botanical garden in the entire Spain. It is located in Las Palmas, the capital city of Gran Canaria.
Surfing and windsurfing in Gran Canaria are at their best, as compared with the specific opportunities available in the rest of the Canary Islands world.
Horse riding in Gran Canaria is ideal for discovering the island in a less mainstream manner. It accommodates very well with rural tourism, but not only.
