Peñas del Chache, Mountain summit in Haría, Spain

Peñas del Chache rises 672 meters above sea level, standing as the highest elevation point on the island of Lanzarote in the Canary archipelago.

The mountain formed during the Miocene period as part of the Famara volcanic edifice, representing one of the oldest geological formations on Lanzarote.

The name Chache derives from the language of the Guanche people, the original inhabitants of the Canary Islands, translating to the meaning of height.

The mountain peak contains an Air Surveillance Squadron installation, with a public viewing area providing panoramic views across the island and Atlantic Ocean.

The surroundings feature specific plant species including the wild spurge Euphorbia regis-jubae and tojio thickets Asteriscus intermedius in substitution vegetation patterns.
