Our walk starts off at the Maspalomas Tourist Information Office and along various roads running through the tourist area. Over to the right the Avenida de los Estados Unidos takes us to the Avenida de Tirajana where we turn right.  The avenue goes up the GC-60. In the distance, we can make out the Island’s huge mountain range. This is where we are headed. The avenue goes up to the fourth roundabout, where we will  find a traffic sign which lead us to Fataga.  A little further on we come to a junction in the road on a level with the Emalsa water purification plant., at the sight of a signal leading to a quarry (cantera), where we take the road  down to the left to the Barranco de los Vicentes, at whose channel we will arrive at the end of the tarmac road. We cross over a dirt track and go into the channel on the left hand side. From here, the path goes around and crosses over the ravine channel several times, We leave the channel, having crossed a reedbed,  near the end of the ravine. On our left the path rises quite sharply and, passing over a dirt track, arrives at Degollada Ancha. We continue to the right along this track, descend down to the Cuenca de Ayagaures, from where we can make out the village, reservoir and ravine of La Data in the distance.

It is advisable to stop off in the village of Ayagaures in order to rest and get our strength back.
