# #4 Crossing the Canary Islands – 430 km on the GR131 – Lucie Štaudová

Authors: David Czempka

Date: 2022-05-19

The GR131 route runs across all 7 islands with a total length of over 600 km. Deserts, high mountains, volcanic landscape and dense forests. All of that awaits you there.

Where can you go trekking in winter if you're not a fan of below-freezing temperatures? How about the Canaries! No, it's not just a package-tour destination. The GR131 route runs across all 7 islands with a total length of over 600 km. Deserts 🏜️, high mountains ⛰️, volcanic landscape, and dense forests. All of that awaits you there.

We talked with Lucie Štaudová about trekking in the Canary Islands. You'll learn what the situation is with water and finding gas canisters on the islands, how to get between the islands, how to plan your route, what it's like to sleep on a shortened sleeping pad, and what her biggest screw-ups were 😀.
