バルベルデの天然記念物・トップ20

A very nice seawater pool that is easily accessible

At 1,230 m above sea level, it offers one of the most spectacular views of El Hierro: El Golfo Bay, the north coast, and a tapestry of vineyards, pineapple and banana trees. It has parking, a rest area, and picnic tables, perfect for enjoying the natural beauty. Next to the Hermitage of Our Lady of Charity, it is also the starting point of the historic Jinama Trail and routes such as the Volcano Trail, which invite you to explore volcanic landscapes and unique corners of the island.

Visit the Mirador early or start the tour, for example to the Mirador de la Peña, early, as the Canarian fog rolls in at midday. For us it was 11am and within a few minutes the visibility was not only impaired, it was gone! The view is fantastic!

The building is a jewel designed by César Manrique, the great Canarian architect who dedicated his life to creating organic spaces. At La Peña, Manrique used numerous plants, large windows and masonry ceilings to create a welcoming and fresh atmosphere. Inside, visitors can enjoy the exclusive Mirador de La Peña Restaurant, with its extensive menu of Canarian dishes made with products such as tropical pineapple and the excellent fresh fish produced by this island, declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.

The cliffs of this enormous indentation, 15 kilometers wide and one and a half kilometers high, are covered with dense native vegetation. At its foot lies a volcanic plain with vineyards and fruit trees that ends in the blue Atlantic. From La Peña you can also see the virgin Roques de Salmor, sanctuary of endemic giant lizards.

Definitely my favorite place on the island. Easy and adapted access for disabled people. Tacorón beach is fantastic for snorkeling and diving, it has a lifeguard service and a small beach bar. The natural pool is very calm and numerous fish can be found on its rocky, shallow bottom. For good swimmers, I recommend getting out of the pool and exploring the entire coast. Towards the right you can swim to the devil's cave. Towards the left you can visit several coves by swimming, reaching the area where female sunray sharks approach to give birth. Be careful with the buoys as they are the mooring points for the boats that take divers to do their dives; and, of course, with the waves that although the sea of calm does justice to its name, it also sometimes rises up.

Although it is a volcano, Malpaso has been dormant for many years. The island of El Hierro, in general, is known for its volcanic activity, the most recent being the underwater eruption near La Restinga in 2011. There are several routes leading to the top, offering stunning views of the island and, on clear days, the neighboring islands. The area around Malpaso is rich in flora and fauna, including endemic species and laurel forests, a type of subtropical humid forest that is rare and protected. From the top, you can get panoramic views of the entire island, including the coastline and the Atlantic Ocean. On clear days, you can see the neighboring islands of La Palma, La Gomera and Tenerife.
