The fourth leg of my GR131 hiking series. In this episode I discover that I might have bitten off more than I can chew as I attempt to traverse the windswept island of Fuerteventura.
In a bid to tick off another section of the 560km GR131, I returned to the Canaries in February 2024. Watch as the second largest of Spain’s Canary Islands teaches me that I definitely need to do some more cardio.

Thanks for the video. I'm just planning my Fuerteventura and Lanzarote crossing. I plan to cover over 180km in five days in Fuerteventura. Only unlike you, I won't be able to change plans according to my current condition. I am comfortable and will book a hotel for each night.

Amazing! Hotels is a fine idea. Fingers crossed for good weather!

Great vid and brought the memories flooding back. GR131 I agree can kick you in the ass !! Good challenging trek and enjoyable, even though can be tough at times. I did it over a few more days and still felt the pain !! The section you missed to the light house, goes on for ever, following the coast up and down the shore line foot paths, then its a bus journey back to Morro Jable.... I would say my favourite sections was the one to Costa Calma, and then costa Calma to Morro Jable along the coast.

Thanks! Glad to hear I didn't miss much by skipping the lighthouse :)

Heroic! The Sinead was an unexpected and much appreciated bonus.

@JonnoDoesStuff 6 месяцев назад

Love a bit of Sinead

BEST one yet. We need to work on your Spanish accent. BUT (gnarf) you are clearly ready for a Broadway career x

Amazing! Hope my hapless ramblings come in handy. Will be posting Tenerife on the 14th. Are you doing the whole lot in one go, or section by section?

Awesome! Thanks for sharing. Loved every minute of it. Well… sans the buns. Would you mind doing a gear loadout at some point? Looks like you had it dialled in.

@JonnoDoesStuff 5 месяцев назад

Glad you enjoyed it! Sans the buns. Good call on the gear list!

I have watched way too much RU-vid walkers and travellers but with one exception you are the guy I'd most like to share a walk with. You showcase the walk, dont talk much but what you say is amusing and pertinent. I struggle to see such low numbers of subscribers and views. I appreciate your efforts.

@JonnoDoesStuff Месяц назад

That's incredibly kind of you to say, Kevin, thank you. At the moment I'm just happy to have an excuse to go hiking, if people enjoy watching then even better!

@@JonnoDoesStuff No doubt. I've walked a lot in Tenerife and I too have been barmy after 10 hours on the heat But it was well done and very funny.... cheers.
