Roque Nublo Viewpoint

Located in the central municipality of Tejeda, on the island of Gran Canaria, Roque Nublo is considered one of the largest natural crags in the world. Of special significance for the islanders, this volcanic rock rises eighty meters above its base and 1,813 meters above the sea. A former place of worship for the aborigines, the entire area around it was declared a protected natural area in 1987 and a rural park seven years later. Its enormous presence is only surpassed in height by the peak of Las Nieves, with 1,949 meters, the highest place in Gran Canaria.

Sostenibilidad
- 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.).
