Excursions in El Hierro


Tamaduste, on the northern part of El Hierro Island has a very beautiful and attractive natural basin. It has crystalline water and a few activities can be enjoyed from here. Monacal on the other hand has huge natural basins near the coastline and it also has luxuriant vegetation. Another great attraction that you will find here is an old settlement that has stone houses and straw roofs. It is pozo de las Calcosas and is definitely worth admiring on your journey.

Mirador de la Pena is a wonderful viewpoint and you will easily enjoy the fantastic panorama especially on the western part of El Hierro. Other great views can be got from Tinor the small village located to the interior of the amazing tableland. Another interesting place in the island is La Frontera which is a village that is literally cut away from the rest of the island’s area by high mountains. The best things which can be enjoyed here are fruits and wine. The wines are particularly excellent and the quesadillas and smoked cheese simply delicious.

Also worth checking out on your El Hierro journey is El Pinar, a white village that is very charming and has thick woods for its surroundings. The climate here is mild and there are also very fertile grounds. You will find the nearby mountain Montana de Tanajara very impressive and you can enjoy wonderful views from here over the landscapes of volcano to the south as well as the centralized woods within El Hierro. The sunsets from this village are simply romantic.

Malpaso is the island’s highest elevation and from where you can enjoy great panorama. The woods on this part are untouched and provide a perfect ground for adventure and exploration. Sabinosa spa to the west is deemed to be the most beautiful of all villages here and it is at a strategic place over the sea. The traditional styled whitewashed houses that are typical make the villages here very impressive.

El Sabinal forest still here in El Hierro is amusing with the bent trees as a result of the strong winds experienced here. There is also La resting to the south which is most ideal for fishers and divers thanks to the crystalline water. The ambience on this part of the island is authentic making it worth stopping at and enjoying during your journey through the island.
