Later, there is a gap in the promenade path, then it resumes to pass a few more properties, followed by a bulldozed area awaiting the attention of developers. The paving ends abruptly, so continue along a stony path, aiming right of the tall Faro de Pechiguera, crossing its access road. Follow a concrete wall ahead, then step over it to follow a trodden path past boulders, linking with another promenade path. A few occupied buildings face the sea, while an abandoned development lies inland. The promenade soon ends and an easy track continues. The ground alongside is bleak and stony, dotted with boulders and tabaibal. Reach a road-end and continue along another promenade past the Vik resort. A final built-up area is passed, then the promenade ends at Hoyo Azul.

An easy track leads onwards, roughly parallel to the rugged coast, ending at a wall near a house at Caleta Negra. Pass the wall to follow a rugged path a short way; the track then continues, passing seawards of a ramshackle dwelling. Another wall is reached on the rugged Punta Ginés. Looking ahead, a prominent derelict building is seen – the Atlante del Sol. Rugged paths and tracks run all over the place, but none go in the right direction for long, and walkers must cross awkward areas of stones and boulders. Pass seawards of the big eyesore and scan the terrain ahead to spot paths and tracks that offer easy passage through the stones. Don’t walk too close to the sea, as there are rugged rocks that take too long to pass.
