Mirador del Cabezo del Tejo
Updated 2 August 2026
The Mirador del Cabezo del Tejo is a natural balcony located in the Integral Natural Reserve of El Pijaral, within the Anaga Rural Park (municipality of Santa Cruz de Tenerife). From here, you can see the northern coast of Anaga, with the hamlet of Taganana, the rocks of Almáciga and Benijo, and prominently in the foreground, the Roque de las Ánimas. It is reached via the marked circular trail PR-A 72, which starts from the La Ensillada parking lot and passes through the laurel forest known as the 'enchanted forest'.
As it is an integral natural reserve, access requires prior free authorization with a limited quota of visitors per day.
