This bike route through the Guiniguada ravine is very well known among cyclists who live in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Although it passes through the bed of a ravine, the Cabildo de Gran Canaria has fixed it lately. Currently the road is quite wide, as well as flat. Thus, it is a wide dirt track perfect for Gravel Bikes, Mountain Bikes, electric bicycles or any type. The track is only suitable for bikes or hikers. Therefore, motorcycles or cars are not allowed.
Bike route through the Guiniguada ravine
The path begins near the Stone bridge, in the zone of Triana. And today it extends practically to Santa Brígida, without having to go out onto the main road.
After climbing the entire Guiniguada ravine, we continued to the San Lorenzo area, where we went along some quite technical paths that surrounded The Painter's Dam.
The track we show is from the circular Gravel Bike route, which passes through the following municipalities: Firgas, Arucas, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and Teror.

Three friends have done several routes, the one to the airport, the one to Firgas and this one. All good but the part of the dam area on this route is more than technical, you have to carry the bike through an area that is difficult to access and over a large slope. It also penalized us that we were driving electric.
Otherwise, highly recommended routes, although I don't know how you do them with gravel 👌
Hello Jose! Thank you very much for your comment, we leave it here in case it is useful for other riders who ride electric, something that is complicated in that technical part when carrying. Let's keep pedaling around the island! A hug
Thank you very much for the reply. Soon I will have my Garmin Edge to do it.
regards
perfect Dramas! You tell me what's up! A hug
Hey.
I am interested in this route since I live nearby and I usually go out on the mtb.
In what format is it downloaded, in gpx?
Greetings and congratulations for the initiative.
