The Afurgad Journey through Firgas, in Gran Canaria

Firgas is inaugurating a mini-train route that includes a gastronomic tasting of local products from the town along the way.

Firgas unveils a new way of presenting itself. We already know that if we walk through its ravines and footpaths, we will find many of the last vestiges of what was once the Doramas Forest. In its historic centre, we can also find a tiled representation of all the municipalities of Gran Canaria. But now we can enjoy a circular tour of the town on a mini train which, in addition to showcasing many of its landscapes, allows us to savour its gastronomy. The Aguas de Firgas mini train takes us on a two-hour journey, with audio explanations in English, French, German and Spanish, revealing many of the attractions that visitors have sought out for centuries in this privileged corner of the island of Gran Canaria.

Let your imagination soar towards Maspalomas

Your imagination mirrors these seagulls, always ready to soar off on the slightest breeze. 

Their flight expresses their lust for life against the backdrop of the sky and in this case also highlighting the silhouette of the Maspalomas Lighthouse, in the south of Gran Canaria.
