Corralejo-El Cotillo Walk,Corralejo,Fuerteventura
FeaturedHotThis path starts from Avenue Juan Carlos 1 in the town of Corralejo near the main bus station. At the beginning of the route you will find an information board about the Charco de Bristol - Bristol Pool and in the background you can see the wind generators of the desalination plant. We warn you that cars and cyclists are authorised to use this path, so care must be taken. The route follows along the coastline until it reaches the picturesque village of Majanicho after 3 hrs of walking. Once here you can make a short stop to enjoy the tiny beaches and take a refreshing swim. Continuing with the route bordering the northern coast you will come across small beaches of golden sand, in particular Caleta Beatriz which you will come to in the 14th km of the walk and Playa del Marrajo (in the 17th km) which is a paradise for lovers of surfing. Following the course of the route you will see from a distance The Tostón Lighthouse, which nowadays accommodates a museum dedicated entirely to a history of traditional fishing. Another three kilometres further on you will come across the famous Lagos or Lakes of Cotillo, and it is here that our journey ends.
