Description
Mirador de Vilaflor is a small viewpoint with a parking on the winding road to or from Vilaflor. The views are not the greatest on Tenerife, but sometimes pěnkava kanárská can be observed very close on the parking strip, on the stone wall or just behind it. Also a good area for the local subspecies of strakapoud velký and African Blue Tit.
