National parks Gran Canaria

Gran Canaria has been declared a World Biosphere Reserve, all the natural and geographic richness on the island is living proof that vegetation is a true paradise which must be preserved for residents and visitors alike and its unique environmental conditions closely protected.

One of the island's main attractions is an immense, deep crater (Caldera de Tejeda) which dominates the centre of the island, providing a drainage network of rainwater which in turn runs down the ravines towards the coastal areas.

The other point of interest is crater Caldera de Bandama with the old goat farmer living alone inside the crater.
