   Playa de Ajuy

   Caves walk !! Yea, A Walk to the spectacular Ajuy caves, which are the oldest formations in the Canary Islands. They belong to the basal complex of Fuerteventura, created by the submarine flow of lava and sediment that rose to the surface and began to form the island 100 million years ago in the Cretaceous period. The rocks emerged from a depth of 3,000 metres and started to form the base that these days supports this island and that of Lanzarote. The caves are extremely important from a geological and paleontological perspective and are among the 150 sites of primary geological interest in the world. Visiting them means travelling back in time to the very origins of Fuerteventura and the Canary Islands themselves. Did you knew? • It was the place where Jean de Béthencourt, the conqueror of the Canary Islands, landed in the 15th century. If the weather conditions permit, we will also visit the caves on the west sea coast.

   Pass by

   "La Casa Alta" (The High House) in Tindaya was closely associated with the witches of Tindaya. La Casa Alta in Tindaya is an example of the civil architecture that flourished in the 18th century. Its walls enshrine memories and legends. Legend has it that Mount Tindaya has been a place of witches since ancient times, ever since the Majos performed their rituals on its summit. There, magic, intertwined with the divine, gave birth to countless stories that resonated through the village. From there came good and evil, mystery and precision, the rain that brought life and death—always death. From the mountain, the witches descended and took advantage of the darkness of the night to discuss earthly matters, for they were the ones who determined the entire course of events in the village of Tindaya. And according to legend, at sunrise all those who still wandered through the village sought refuge in the High House.

The underground river that flows under the Las Peñitas ravine is created by human hands (in 1937) and forms a small lake dotted with native plants. The open esplanade of the viewpoint is the perfect place for taking quality photos. Home of the local inhabitants, the chipmunks.
