Nice hike !
Park at La Roseta and prepare for a one way hike of 12km.
The airport was built by Alvaro Rodriguez Lopez (1885-1958) as a private field. He was in business with Thomas Olsen (Fred Olsen) and planted a lot of bananas and tomatoes in southern La Gomera. The road construction to the airport was very demanding. Its impossible to drive along, maybe with an Enduro bike. You will find a gravel runway, a tower and a hangar big enough for a Beech 18. Its a very remote place but absolutely worth to go to!
Reports say that something like Britten Norman Islanders and Mitsubishi MU-2 landed there. It is also reported that they had to leave the runway uphill for building up enough speed for departure.
On sundays you will find hunters there shooting canejos. Can be a bit scary but they are very friendly.
Nicest terminal i ever saw !

In the moment there are only four Binter flights a day. TFN and LPA twic a day by Binter.
The entrance is build like a cathedral entrance. Inside you will find open water, a bar / cafe and car rental.
There is one window not darkened where you can take pictures, but expect no traffic. I saw a Tecnam there.
Very impressive construction !
