Reserva Natural Especial de Azuaje, Special nature reserve in Gran Canaria, Spain.
The reserve spans 61 hectares across a ravine separating the municipalities of Firgas and Moya in northern Gran Canaria.
The protected area, established in 1987 and reclassified in 1994, contains archaeological remains including the pre-Hispanic Guadalupe engravings.
Former water mills and the remains of the Azuaje Hotel-Spa demonstrate the historical relationship between local communities and natural resources.
The reserve features a 5-kilometer trail with a 160-meter elevation change, allowing visitors to observe different vegetation zones and endemic species.
The permanent water course within the Azuaje ravine creates a rare aquatic habitat supporting freshwater species and threatened vegetation.
