Here you have to take advantage when the weather is good, otherwise the fog will be your companion and getting lost can be very easy, also without coverage, ideal in this place to go with company.

This is where the pilgrimage of the Virgin is celebrated (every 4 years).

A place of peace in the middle of a spectacular and quite varied nature, where you can find a beautiful pine forest, a green forest and laurel forest loaded with mosses, as well as other specimens of trees. There are several trails that start from this point, among them the most famous is that of Pico Malpaso. The picnic area and fresh water sources are great for those coming off the trails.

This slope is where the saints of the island receive the permission of the Virgin and all the groups from the different towns dance together to the patron saint on the way down. The families from El Hierro spread the tablecloths and have a family meal that is the main rest of the descent.

It is also known as "The Cross of the Virgin" or "The Cross of the Holy Family". This cross is an important reference point and a religious symbol for the inhabitants of El Hierro.

The Cross of the Kings is located in the municipality of Valverde, the island's capital, and is situated in a prominent location with panoramic views of the valley and ocean. It is believed that it was erected in the 17th century as an expression of religious devotion and as a form of protection for the island and its inhabitants.

The cross is a place of pilgrimage and devotion, especially during religious festivities such as the celebration of the Three Wise Men (January 6), hence its name. Locals and visitors often come to the cross to make offerings, pray and enjoy the views.

The Cross of the Kings is also a symbol of identity and pride for the inhabitants of El Hierro, who consider it an important element of their cultural and religious heritage.
