Hiking

The viewpoint Mirador de Los Andenes is located a few kilometers from the Mirador del Roque de Los Muchachos viewpoint, north of the Caldera de Taburiente at 2,000 meters altitude. From here you have a wide view of the gorge Barranco de las Angustias inside the National Park Caldera de Taburiente and the entire nature reserve Pinar de Garafía in the north.
