Mirador Cuatro Cañones
An urban lookout in the Ciudad Alta district of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, in the Schamann and San Antonio sector, next to the housing estate that gives it its name. It corresponds to the watch point forming the north-eastern vertex of the ridge on which the neighbourhood is built, between the slopes of the Barranquillo de Don Zoilo and those of the Cornisa de San Antonio. The official city guide lists it alongside the Altavista and El Cardón lookouts.
The Mirador de Cuatro Cañones lies in the Ciudad Alta district of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, in the Schamann sector, next to the housing estate that gives it its name. It corresponds to the watch point that forms the north-eastern vertex of the ridge on which the neighbourhood is built, bounded by the slopes of the Barranquillo de Don Zoilo and those of the Cornisa de San Antonio.
From that cornice front, much of the city's coastal platform is laid open, between the port area and La Isleta and the historic centre of Vegueta and Triana. Municipal documents describe it as a visual reference in the relationship between the upper and the lower city, level with the Arenales and Ciudad Jardín neighbourhoods.

Mirador de Izcagua
Mirador de Izcagua stands in the El Pinar area of Puntagorda, in the north-west of La Palma, right beside the Mercadillo del Agricultor farmers' market. The website of the La Palma Biosphere Reserve presents it as a set of floating viewpoints: walkways edged with glass railings that reach out over the ravine and give a sensation of flight. It is reached by car from the village centre heading north, along the camino del Pinar.
