THE Walk to the caves ! The oldest rock formations in the Canary Islands The oldest rock formations in the Canary Islands come to the surface in the Ajuy Caves, which have been declared a Natural Monument and are located in the town of the same name, north of the village of Pájara. This geological wonder consists of observing with the naked eye the deposits that formed in the ocean floor during the Cretaceous period, between 100 and 150 million years ago. It is a mystery, because the formation of Fuerteventura dates back to approximately 30 million years ago. Access to the caves is a remarkable experience, because you walk along a fossilized sand dune, and along the way you can see some old lime kilns, which are unique because the stones were shipped directly into the sea. In the area around Ajuy you will also find places of interest such as the Canarian palm grove of Madre del Agua, along the same ravine that the conquistadors crossed 600 years ago,.

Mirador Sicasumbre (Pass by)
Driving south, we arrive at the Sicasumbre Viewpoint, located about 300 meters above sea level. This is, by the way, one of the best places on our island to observe the sky. The beauty of the area is perfectly combined with the facilities the viewpoint offers, from information and signage to the mountains, so those who wish can comfortably use their cameras. Our guide, Pepe, says: "It's a panoramic and breathtaking viewpoint on clear, cloudy days. "We'll stop there whenever the weather conditions are favorable, without fail."

"La Casa Alta" (The High House) in Tindaya was closely associated with the witches of Tindaya. La Casa Alta in Tindaya is an example of the civil architecture that flourished in the 18th century. Its walls enshrine memories and legends. Legend has it that Mount Tindaya has been a witches' haven since ancient times, ever since the Majos performed their rituals on its summit. There, magic, intertwined with the divine, spawned countless stories that resonated through the village. Good and evil, mystery and precision, the rain that brought life and death—always death—came from the mountain. From the mountain, the witches descended and took advantage of the darkness of the night to discuss earthly matters, for they were the ones who determined the entire course of events in the village of Tindaya. And according to legend, all those who still wandered through the village at sunrise sought refuge in the High House.
