Mirador de La Peña, Observation point in Valverde, El Hierro, Spain.

The Mirador de La Peña structure extends over two levels adapted to the terrain, incorporating walkways, gardens, and a restaurant with viewing areas.

The observation point, designed by architect César Manrique, opened on June 17, 1989, and received cultural heritage status from the Canary Islands government in 2001.

The building materials of stone and wood reflect traditional Herreño architecture, while the structure demonstrates the integration of construction with natural landscapes.

The site includes parking facilities, a restaurant serving Canarian cuisine, and a shop offering local products from El Hierro island.

From its position at 1200 meters altitude, visitors observe the Salmor rocks, vineyards, and fruit orchards extending to the Atlantic Ocean coast.
