Descrizione
The Malpaís de Rasca nature reserve with its volcanic cones that dominate the area create a striking and unique coastal landscape. The other-worldly landscape is created by tongues of lava known as malpaís (meaning "bad country" because of its rough ground). The area is home to inland and coastal species of Canary Island spurges and euphorbia, as well as a number of native plant species.
Various species of sea birds and herons can be seen on the coastline and above sea. Especially during migration periods this is a nice area for birding and making the beautiful coastal walk to the lighthouse of Faro de Rasca. Among the birds you can see on the coastline during migration are Pivieressa, Voltapietre, Corriere grosso, Chiurlo piccolo, Piro piro piccolo, Pantana and Garzetta. Birds out on see include mainly Berta maggiore, Gabbiano reale and sometimes other seabirds. Inland birds include Pernice sarda, Averla maggiore, Sterpazzola della Sardegna and Pispola di Berthelot. Outside the migration period, the birding is far less interesting, although the walk to the lighthouse remains a great scenic hike.
