"wonderful view. you can park there and admire the amazing view. you can see all the way to the ocean on one side or the old capital betancuria. it is quite windy. there are also 2 statues with their kings and a panel telling the history of the place"

"Very interesting view point and a piece of a Canary Islands history. Large viewing terrace overlooking the landscape on one side and a two impressive metal sculptures of Guise and Ayose. A few parking spaces on both sides of the road available , there is not much to walk, you probably spend there approx. 20-30 min. The point is located almost between the two turnes, so it is quite tricky to drive out as you have to watch out both directions and it's quite inconvenient. I was lucky to have my partner to make sure the road is free 😊."
