Description
This Gran Canaria pine forest is one of two localities where the endemic Gran Canaria mavi ispinoz can still be found and even here they are scarce. Canary Island endemic subspecies from other species can also be found here like: Karatavuk, İspinoz, Kızılgerdan, Afrika Baştankarası and Orman alaca ağaçkakanı. This area can be explored from numerous walking trails and be prepared for birds being high up in the pines.
