    La Fortaleza de Chipude is a huge volcanic formation located in the west-central part of La Gomera and one of the most impressive and symbolic places on the entire island. Its silhouette stands out from many points because it has a very flat and elevated summit, almost like a gigantic rock table emerging above the ravines. Although many people think it could be a complete volcano, it is actually an ancient volcanic dome and one of the great geological monuments of La Gomera.
