This spectacular viewpoint has views towards the Barranco del Cedro, within the Garajonay Natural Park.

Laurisilva Forest of La Gomera

Highlight • Forest

Like something out of a fairy tale, the high level of humidity that can be trapped in the dense forests of La Gomera, creates the perfect conditions for the Laurel tree, also called Laurisilva, to thrive in this subtropical environment.
