Mirador de Las Peñitas

Mirador de Las Peñitas is one of those special corners of Fuerteventura that leaves you breathless. Located at 338 meters altitude along the FV-30 road, this panoramic viewpoint offers 360-degree views spanning from the spectacular arid barranco de Las Peñitas to the shimmering sea in the distance. What surprises most is the contrast between the volcanic landscape and the green valley of Los Granadillos, an unexpected oasis that breaks with the island's desert image.

Accessible 24 hours and easy to stop at since it's right by the road, this viewpoint has become a must-visit spot for photographers and nature lovers. Beyond the stunning panoramas, you'll have the company of curious Barbary ground squirrels that approach fearlessly and large ravens soaring over the ravine. Information panels help you better understand the geology, flora, and fauna of this unique Betancuria area, making your visit an unforgettable visual and educational experience.
