Lara Castle, Betancuria

In the municipality of Betancuria, and just 2.5 kilometers from the capital, found one of the only forest ecosystems that exist in the island of Fuerteventura.

At 450 meters high and surrounded by mountains, the castle of Lara is a leisure area in nature, enabled for barbecues and grills, or just hiking in the mountains.

This area is fully equipped with barbecues, tables and chairs to eat, a playground, running water, toilets and parking area, all surrounded by a forest of young pines, creating a cool, moist microclimate particularly to the area.

To reach this beautiful entertainment area, largely unknown, we must come out of Betancuria Pájara done by the FV-30. A 560 meters on the left, found the entrance to a dirt road, which is indicated accordingly. We will follow this forest road about 1.5 miles until you reach the area.
It is worth visiting this area since it is one of the only forest on the island, and the contrast with the rest of the island is very significant.
From here, we can make an easy and interesting excursion to the mountain to protect the forest, where large antennas are installed a phone and found about 5 miles from where there are magnificent views of the downtown area of Fuerteventura.
