Ruta Astronómica: Degollada del Salao – Garañón begins at Degollada del Salao on Gran Canaria, with initial views opening toward the island’s northeast. This is a guided evening walking route: the objective is to move through the high-country landscape, observe the light change, and use the darkening sky as part of the experience.
From the start, the route looks toward Las Palmas, Arucas, and Telde before descending on the Salao forest track. As the path turns west, the view shifts toward Roque Nublo and Tenerife. The group pauses for sunset, then begins an introduction to the night sky, making the walk as much about astronomy as about the trail itself.
