Pico Bejenado Viewpoint

The giant of the Caldera de Taburiente

The Pico Bejenado is a volcanic mountain in the southeast of La Palma with an elevation of 1,854 metres. It is part of a triangular mountain range between the Barranco de El Riachuelo, Barranco Tenisca, Barranco de las Angustias and the southern side of the Caldera de Taburiente. You need to follow the PR LP 13.3 path. There is a steep incline but you will be rewarded with spectacular views once you reach the peak. You can see the outstanding insular landscape and a panoramic view of the Caldera de Taburiente National Park, the Ruta de los Volcanes and the Valle de Aridane.

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.).
