Circa un centinaio di pannelli di incisioni pre-conquista, picchiettate sulle colate laviche e allineate con l'orizzonte in modi ancora studiati per la loro intenzione astronomica, su un remoto pendio meridionale che quasi nessuno fuori dall'isola visita.
- Good to know
- Mezza giornata tra il trasferimento in auto e la camminata; l'accesso può richiedere una guida, informati sul posto

The views here are amazing. Nice smal museum about cultural heritage of the people of El Hierro. The road to get there is verry narrow and full of tight turns and sometimes steep. Not for unexperienced drivers.
Beautiful, scenic spot with great views of the coast. There's a museum and you can buy books about the island. It's very far off but if you've got some time and aren't afraid of cliff roads, it's worth a visit.
Information on original inhabitants and their culture upstairs and on the whistle language on the ground floor. In a separate room they show a 10 minute video on the preservation status of the inscriptions. The inscriptions are not on this site though and if you want to see them in real life you have to make a reservation a day in advance for an early start and an excursion of several hours. The center is located in the middle of nowhere and the road to it, although paved, is not for the faint hearted.
In every Interpretation Center here in El Hierro the personnel are so nice, so attentive, so kind, so welcoming, so willing to help you have the best experience on the island! Beautiful exhibition converging the whistle of El Hierro, amazing part with AI generated images also about the whistle. The guide was amazing, so so nice. We didn't had the guided walk (we didn't have enough days to do that), but observing the passion to explain the exhibition it would have been something very nice to do!
Reaching the destination is not for weak hearts, but driving slowly and carefully you can enjoy an amazing views. When possible, stop and enjoy the nature
