Mirador de Santa Clara

La Gomera

A natural balcony over the northern valleys

Located on an elevated spot in the north of the island, the Santa Clara viewpoint offers a wide panorama of the valleys and ravines that shape the landscape of La Gomera. From here, the land unfolds into green slopes, agricultural terraces and the horizon of the Atlantic Ocean, creating a serene setting that invites visitors to pause and take their time. It is an ideal place to understand the island’s terrain and appreciate the balance between nature and human activity, especially at sunrise and sunset.

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.).
