For me, this is the jungle road par excellence on La Palma. The tarmac is fine throughout. The traffic is very relaxed. There are 3 unlit tunnels on the route. You should at least have your mobile phone with you, as it is really pitch dark in the tunnels.... read more

Für mich die Dschungelstraße schlechthin auf La Palma. Der Asphalt ist durchweg in Ordnung. Der Verkehr ist sehr entspannt. Es gibt 3 unbeleuchtete Tunnel auf der Strecke. Ihr solltet mindestens euer Handy dabei haben, da es wirklich Stockdunkel in den Tunneln ist.
