Mirador Barranco de Garome

The best view of the Barranco de Garome

The Mirador del Barranco de Garome offers a panoramic view of the valley of the same name, which forms a natural border between Puntagorda and Tijarafe. The valley is surrounded by pine forests. The climb is not suitable for people who suffer from vertigo as it drops from 2,200 metres to ground level in just 10 kilometres. We really recommend going to watch the sunset where you can admire the incredible colours and hues that glisten off the sea in the distance. The viewpoint is on the LP-1 road, after the Tinizara neighbourhood in the north of the town, so you can reach it by car.

Sustainability

Never leave waste of any type lying around, including cigarette butts. Leftover food leads to a proliferation of rats and wild cats, which pose a serious threat to the fauna.
Respect the animals. Do not bother them or feed them. If you see an injured specimen, you can call the emergency number: 112. Do not pick flowers or plants.
Do not pick up or take away stones or any other item from the natural environment. And do not move them to pile them up into sadly famous 'towers'.
Respect and look after the different items of public furniture (information panels, railings, seats, lighting, binoculars and telescopes, etc.).
Respect the signposting along trails. Leaving the set paths and spaces causes damage to the environment and could also be dangerous for you and anyone with you.
Try not to alter the peace of the environment with excessive noise (loud music, yelling, etc.).
