The sign at the entrance says that the small park (and with it the path down into the crater) will be closed at 5 p.m. We got in at 7pm too, but of course we stayed near the gate! There you can marvel at some magnificent chickens, which then run around quite trustingly.

The Bandama Natural Park (Spanish: Monumento Natural de Bandama) is a protected landscape area in the northeast of the island of Gran Canaria, in the Spanish province of Las Palmas. It consists of two clearly defined units: the mountain peak Pico de Bandama and the Caldera de Bandama.

The name Bandama is not of Spanish origin. It is derived from the Flemish trader Daniel Van Damme, who ran a very successful winery in the Caldera in the 16th century. This man's will is the first written documentation of viticulture in this area of the island. The wine presses, which are still partially preserved today, and the associated fermentation tanks (lagares), in which the grapes were mashed, are among the oldest of their kind on Gran Canaria.

Nice hike with great views. Unfortunately not suitable for people with fear of heights, my husband had to turn back after 1/3 of the way.
