Llanos del Jable Viewpoint

A natural balcony over one meter above the sea

In the upper part of El Paso, at 1,200 meters above sea level, the Llanos del Jable lookout point offers splendid views of the Aridane Valley during the day, with the ancient volcano of Montaña Quemada in the foreground. At night, this area of La Palma – an island that is recognized as a Starlight Reserve due to the quality of its sky – is a wonderful natural balcony to contemplate unique panoramic views of the sky. The lookout point has an information panel and ample parking, although it lacks nearby services. It is advisable to bring warm clothes.

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.).
