Natural Monument
About This Attraction
Roque Nublo is a prominent natural landmark located in the center of Gran Canaria, Spain. This volcanic rock formation stands at 80 meters tall and sits at an altitude of around 1,813 meters above sea level, making it one of the highest points on the island. It is a popular destination for hikers and nature enthusiasts, offering stunning views of the surrounding landscapes. The site can be accessed through various hiking trails that vary in difficulty, providing options for different levels of fitness and experience.
While Roque Nublo does not have specific opening hours, it is generally accessible to visitors throughout the day. However, it is advisable to visit during daylight hours for safety reasons and to fully enjoy the panoramic views. There are no facilities directly at the rock, so visitors should come prepared with water and snacks. Parking is available near the trailhead, but it can become crowded during peak tourist seasons.
