Mirador de Jinama
Glass viewpoint at 1,250 metres over the El Golfo valley.
At around 1,250 metres, on the edge of El Hierro's summit ridge, this viewpoint looks out over the whole El Golfo valley, with its vineyards, banana groves and pineapple crops stretching toward the west coast. A recently opened glass walkway heightens the sense of vertigo and the drama of the landscape, especially at sunset. One of the island's most beautiful historic trails also starts here, descending toward La Frontera.

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.
