Bandama Natural Monument viewpoint
Highlight • Viewpoint
The Bandama Natural Park (Spanish: Monumento Natural de Bandama) is a protected landscape area in the northeast of the island of Gran Canaria, in the Spanish province of Las Palmas. It consists of two clearly defined units: the mountain peak Pico de Bandama and the Caldera de Bandama.
The name Bandama is not of Spanish origin. It is derived from the Flemish trader Daniel Van Damme, who ran a very successful winery in the Caldera in the 16th century. This man's will is the first written documentation of viticulture in this area of the island. The wine presses, which are still partially preserved today, and the associated fermentation tanks (lagares), in which the grapes were mashed, are among the oldest of their kind on Gran Canaria.

Some slopes are very very steep, and the ground can be slippery. This is a very beautiful place with magnificent landscapes.

Bandama Ridge Trail
Highlight • Trail
Walking shoes with good grip are recommended, sneakers will not get you there. Many areas with loose gravel where you can easily slide. Some tough climbs/descendants.

Even the drive to the starting point was a lot of fun, because Vega de San Mateo and Santa Brígida are along the route, and both towns 🏡🤩 are very beautiful. The surrounding area is green and colorful... and very nicely built.
And the roads: spotless 🥳

But the fantastic views of the volcanic crater and the coast more than make up for it. Top tour!
