2016 Hike Gran Canaria Cruz de Tejeda to Cueva Grande

0845hrs Friday 28 October 2016 walked to the Telmo Bus Station, Las Palmas where we met our friends and caught the 0930 hrs nr 303 bus to San Mateo where we caught the 1030 hrs nr 305 bus to Cruz de Tejeda arriving there at 1110 hrs.

 
From Cruz de Tejeda we walked south along the caldera rim 
 
With great views over the caldera

 
Looking back towards Cruz de Tejeda
 

Eventually arriving at the Degollada Becerra

 
Shortly afterwards at the Degollada de Cumbra, our party split up with some taking the route to La Culata, a very steep descent into the Caldera bottom. We joined the group going to Cueva Grande
 

 
 
  

 
Views of the Las Palmas and the North Coast
 
 Arrived in Cueva Grande with ample time for a beer at the cafe close to the bus stop before catching the 1532 hrs nr 305 bus back to San Mateo from where we caught the 1600 hrs nr 303 bus to Las Palmas. Took a nr 1 Yellow Bus which dropped us off close to the Triodus Bank and were back on Dutch Link by 1705 hrs.
