Parque Rural de Betancuria, Fuerteventura. Macizos rocosos del Complejo Basal en Fuerteventura.. www.visitafuerteventura.com

Almost all of the park coincides with the outcrop of the basal complex of Fuerteventura, which occupy the west side of the island, which not only gives an exceptional scientific interest but also imposes a structural peculiarity and color all over. Overall, this is a beautiful landscape steeped in a traditional local color and decorated throughout by singular elements that characterize the landscape of the area (ravines, ridges, ...). 

In the cliffs and mountain ranges rupícolas many plants take refuge with several endangered and protected species. No lack of introduced species such as snuff Moor (Nicotianaglauca), or even small populations of pines near Betancuria. On the other hand,individuals and the wetland habitat of the Penitas dam and mills, of great interest andwildlife and inland coastal cliffs are a refuge for several endangered birds of prey.
