We organised our Masca Gorge trip through our tour operator Tui; they use local company Diga Sports who charge Euro 54 per person for hotel pick up, coach to Masca village, a sandwich for the hike, a guide on the hike, the boat back to Los Gigantes and the coach back to the hotel. Diga Sports also provide boots and walking poles if needed.

Very little room to park at Masca

An interesting local trekker

 

 

20 minutes in we reached a small bridge - this was the point that those with shaking knees were asked to go back!
