Mirador de El Julan
Mirador de El Julan sits at 850 metres above sea level in the municipality of El Pinar, in the south-west of El Hierro, beside the HI-400 road. The island tourism portal describes it as opening onto panoramic views over the hillside, whose sheer gradient runs down towards the cliff that meets the Mar de Las Calmas. The volcanic field of La Restinga closes the view. There is parking at the spot.
Mirador de El Julan opens at 850 metres above sea level in the municipality of El Pinar, in the south-west of El Hierro, right beside the HI-400 road. The island tourism portal describes it as offering panoramic views over the hillside, where the sheer gradient can be appreciated as it runs down in search of the cliff that meets the Mar de Las Calmas.
From the viewpoint one can pick out incipient ravines and sparse vegetation, with the volcanic field of La Restinga closing the horizon. The same source notes that the hillside is made up of stacked volcanic materials of intermediate age, whose products cover the whole slope at the surface. Parking is available at the spot.

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.
