Montaña de Tindaya, Sacred mountain in Fuerteventura, Spain.

The mountain rises to 401 meters above sea level on the volcanic island of Fuerteventura, with rocky slopes and distinct geological formations.

The indigenous Guanche people carved more than 200 rock engravings on the mountain slopes, creating a significant archaeological site dating back centuries.

Local inhabitants maintain traditional beliefs about the mountain's supernatural powers, including its ability to bring healing to the sick near its base.

A marked hiking trail extends 1.4 kilometers to the summit, requiring approximately 31 minutes to complete with an elevation gain of 219 meters.

Eduardo Chillida proposed creating a massive cubist cavern within the mountain, requiring the removal of 64,000 cubic meters of rock material.
