Mirador Barranco del Chafarís

The Mirador Barranco del Chafarís is one of those Lanzarote spots where the volcanic landscape truly takes your breath away. Located on the LZ-10 road between Haría and the north coast, this natural viewpoint offers spectacular views of the ravine descending towards the sea, with the villages of Arrieta and Punta Mujeres silhouetted against the Atlantic blue. Open 24 hours a day, the viewpoint features parking and a pleasant wooded area with picnic tables and barbecue facilities, perfect for a relaxing break surrounded by nature.

It's also a popular starting point for cyclists, as it's part of several challenging ascent routes covering about 11 kilometers with nearly 580 meters of elevation gain. For the more adventurous, you can explore the surroundings on foot from here, always taking care with the wind and the cliff edge. The combination of volcanic landscape, native vegetation, and panoramic views of the island's north makes it an essential stop for those seeking to connect with Lanzarote's natural essence away from the busier tourist zones.
