Tindaya-Esquinzo-El Cotillo Walk,Tindaya,Fuerteventura

This path is of medium difficulty. It is a route which will take over four hours on a footpath with little available shade. We recommend you to do it early morning and to carry water with you. The path begins on the track which joins the village of Tindaya with the beach, across the Esquinzo Plain. After approximately 40 mins you will come across the dry gully of Esquinzo which you will cross by a goat farm and farm cottage, and a little after that you will come to the track situated in the river bed. Although there are various paths, always stay on the one which follows the river bed. This part of the route is sandy terrain. You need to proceed with caution because after an hour and a half of going, the river bed drops abruptly, but this can easily be crossed. Some twenty minutes later you will be able to make out Esquinzo Beach. After passing through the river gully you need to go in a northerly direction via a path in good condition until you reach Stone Beach and the Castle of Toston in the locality of El Cotillo, which is where this interesting route ends.
