Never leave waste of any kind in the environment, including cigarette butts. Food remains contribute to the proliferation of rodents and feral cats that pose a serious threat to wildlife.

- Respect the animals, do not bother them or feed them. If you see an injured specimen, you can call the emergency number 112. Also do not pluck flowers or plants.

- Do not collect or take stones or any other element from the natural environment. Nor do you modify it by piling them up to make the sadly famous “towers.”

- Do not practice sports activities outside the permitted areas.

One of the outstanding places in Spain to practice paragliding is the summit of Dos Hermanas, in the northwest of El Hierro. Flying on the southernmost island of the Canary archipelago is wonderful because it offers great conditions for it. The trade winds, the orientation of the terrain and the possibility of taking off at different heights make learning and acrobatics possible. In fact, the island has been holding a famous international paragliding rally for 20 years that attracts pilots from all over.

Paragliding over the El Golfo Valley

The best-known flight of El Hierro, that of the El Golfo Valley, has different heights at the summit of Dos Hermanas (Frontera). Both in the takeoff of 1,200 meters and in those of 1,000, 800 and 600 meters, there are thermoslope conditions that allow you to fly for hours and thus contemplate a spectacular landscape that begins at the Arenas Blancas beach and ends at the Salmor rocks. . The landing point is in Frontera, next to the bus station.
