El Tamadaba Natural Park covers the municipalities of Agaete, Artenara and San Nicolás, in the northwestern region of the island of Gran Canaria.
Formed by steep massifs and ravines, it has an area of 7.539 hectares. It is populated by a Canarian pine forest that is the most extensive and best preserved, and inside there are several artificial dams of great importance for life on the island.
It not only encompasses the highest areas, but also the coastal ravines and cliffs that reach the sea, from the Agaete Valley until ravine of El Perchel, in San Nicolás de Tolentino.
Among the most outstanding sites we can name the mountains of Altavista, Tirma and Tamadaba, the zone of The risk and Guayedra Valley, where we can appreciate some archaeological remains. In the Andén Verde cliffs and Punta de las Arenas there are some interesting dunes of the Quaternary. But it would be impossible to name the infinity of valleys, mountains, calderas, plateaus and ravines that have infinite appeal to visit. The geological wealth has no end in this Park.
In Tamadaba there are picnic areas with barbecues, drinking water and toilets, to enjoy excursions in the region, and also suitable for accommodation (Carballo loin). Hiking is another possibility to explore the Park, we can find viewpoints from where we can appreciate panoramic landscapes.
