48 miles ultralight solo hiking on Gran Canaria | Solo hiking bliss, dehydration, and blazing views

The first of my GR131 hikes. Gran Canaria is stage 3 of a 560km (348 mile) trek that takes you across all seven magnificent Canary Islands.

I undertook the Gran Canaria stage of the GR131 in April, 2023, eager to thaw my cold British bones. Turns out the Canary Islands can get scorching hot in April. Who knew? (not me!).
