Montañón Negro, Volcanic monument in Moya, Las Palmas, Spain

The Montañón Negro features a crater measuring 300 meters in diameter and 150 meters deep, reaching 1669 meters above sea level.

The formation of this strombolian volcano dates back approximately 3500 years, marking one of the final volcanic episodes on Gran Canaria island.

The natural monument preserves traditional paths and trails that connected local communities before modern roads were constructed at the end of the 20th century.

Two observation points located in the Caldera de Los Pinos de Gáldar provide access to hiking trails throughout the protected natural area.

The volcanic cone contains specimens of Pinos de Gáldar between its lava flows, which represent some of the largest trunk circumferences on the island.

Location: Moya, Las Palmas
