Llano de los Loros

Mirador del Llano de los Loros is a viewpoint in San Cristóbal de La Laguna that overlooks the Tahodio ravine, its reservoir, and Santa Cruz city, with occasional views toward Gran Canaria in clear weather. The site sits along walking trails through laurel forests and features a weather station that displays current conditions.

The viewpoint sits along ancient routes that connected Anaga and La Laguna, paths that wind through forests emerging from the seafloor over 10 million years ago. These connections have shaped movement across the region for centuries.

The viewpoint connects to a network of walking paths that local communities have used for generations to travel between settlements and tend the land. These routes still shape how people move through and experience the landscape today.

Visitors should expect slippery paths in wet or windy conditions and wear appropriate footwear, especially on forest sections. The weather station on-site helps with planning, and the area is most pleasant to explore in early morning or late afternoon.

The area features dry laurel forests, an unusual variant of these ecosystems that differs noticeably from wetter forests found elsewhere. This specialized woodland type attracts visitors looking to encounter less familiar natural environments on the island.
