What this video covers

Niki and Flo, currently anchored in Valle Gran Rey on the island of La Gomera, rent a Fiat 500 cabriolet to explore the island’s interior.▶ 1:39 The crew spends four days driving the island’s steep, winding roads to access inland hiking trails, including the Laurisilva Cloud Forest and the red-earth landscapes near Las Rosas.▶ 4:12 They visit the village of Agulo to sample local smoked goat cheese and honey before hiking a loop trail at 1,300 meters elevation near a lookout point, where they observe wildflowers and views of the Teide volcano on Tenerife.▶ 10:54 The rental car allows the crew to bypass the limitations of their typical five-knot sailing speed and access terrain inaccessible from the coast.▶ 11:21 The excursion highlights the value of budgeting for inland travel to supplement coastal cruising.
