Mirador de Guiguan

The agricultural heart of Lanzarote

The little-known Guiguán Viewpoint stands in the town of Tinajo, near the Los Volcanes Natural Park. The views it affords of the Caldera de Guiguán are dominated by small fields of local crops, areas covered with sand and walls made of volcanic rock. Moreover, the viewpoint connects to the trail that runs around the interior of the volcanic cone: the perfect opportunity to observe the island’s natural environment from up close.

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.).
