At this point, Branch 3 ends on the southern slope of Tifirabena Chica, where it joins Branch 2 along the Pozo de La Ballena trail.

If you’ve made it this far — congratulations! You have successfully completed the third branch of the circular trail “El Mentidero–El Canto–El Cascajo”, bringing to a close the route we call “The Path of Smallholdings”.

This path represents the living and inhabited heart of the rural landscape, serving as a link between Branch 1 (“The Heartbeat of the Mountain”) and Branch 2 (“The Path of Sustenance”) —connecting the re-wilded highlands with the world of shepherds, fishers, and farmers that has long defined the island’s character.
