DESCRIPTION
WE HAVE CLASSIFIED OUR ROUTES IN 4 LEVELS TAKING INTO ACCOUNT ASPECTS SUCH AS THE TYPE OF TERRAIN, THE DISTANCE, THE SLOPE AND THE DURATION, BEING LEVEL 1 FOR BEGINNERS AND LEVEL 4 FOR EXPERIENCED HIKERS.
THE MAIN DIFFICULTY OF THE ROUTES IN FUERTEVENTURA IS THE SUN AND THE HIGH TEMPERATURES SO IT IS VERY IMPORTANT A GOOD HYDRATION AND SUN PROTECTION.
LEVEL 1
These are short routes in distance (max. 6 km), little positive and negative slope, (between 100 and 200m) on well-marked trails. They are simple routes for people who want to start hiking and who are used to walk.
LEVEL 2
Routes with distances between 6 and 10 km with elevations between 100 and 300 m on well-marked trails. Those are routes for people who have an acceptable physical condition and are being introduced to hiking.
LEVEL 3
Trails with distances between 10 km and 15 km with elevations between 300 and 800 m over uneven terrain. Routes for people in normal to good physical condition who are used to walking on uneven and steep terrain.
LEVEL 4
This level takes into account the following parameters: difficulty of the terrain, slope, and distance, but above all the mountain experience, since these routes range from a day of 4 to 8 hours hike, to several days in which physical fitness plays a fundamental aspect, since you must be able to carry a backpack of 6-7 kilos during long days with high temperatures, over irregular terrain and with some occasional climbs.
