How to get to La Gomera
and the El Cedro forest

Nearly everyone crosses by boat from Tenerife. Then it’s about 40 minutes by car, with a final stretch of track through the forest: the part of the trip our guests talk about most.

By plane

La Gomera airport, in the south of the island, has Binter flights from Tenerife North and Gran Canaria. From the airport to the house it is also about 40 minutes by car.

Once on La Gomera: the car

You will need a car to reach El Cedro and explore the island. You can cross on the ferry with your own or one hired in Tenerife, or hire one directly on La Gomera, in San Sebastián or at the airport.

The last few kilometres, through the forest

The end of the road is a narrow, cobbled forest track with two-way traffic. Many guests describe it to us as an adventure. To enjoy it:

  • The first time, come in daylight.
  • Keep the instructions downloaded that we send you before you arrive. Mobile coverage comes and goes on the track, and Google Maps doesn’t always get it right.
  • Go slowly. You may meet other cars or hikers.
  • The driveway up inside the property is steep. Take even more care in the rain.
  • Do your shopping before driving up. There are no shops in El Cedro.
