“Silbo gomero”. A proud heritage of the past".

The Silbo Gomero whistled language, which came into being in order to allow communication over the deep abysses in the Gomero terrain, has been transmitted from generation to generation to the present day. Today, it survives thanks to intense work to rescue and enhance its heritage, which began with its teaching in the island's schools and led to the declaration of the whistle as World Cultural Heritage by UNESCO.

- 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.).
