The Barranco de Guayadeque is a natural monument with an extension of more than 15 kilometers in length and an altitude of 1200 meters.
It is located in the southeast of the island, separating the towns of Agüimes and Ingenio through this natural monument.
If you like to be in contact with nature, this Barranco is a fantastic choice because it keeps varieties of flora and fauna unique to the natural history of the island.
Inside Guayadeque houses more than 90 native and exotic species from other places, such as Mexico and the United States.
It also keeps much of the history and tradition of Gran Canaria. Remains and archaeological sites with more than 2000 years of history have been discovered in various caves located on the slopes of the ravine of the first aboriginal populations.
These caves were places of survival for the aborigines and apart from living in them they also used them in suitable isothermal conditions to store their food or the bodies of the deceased.
Currently, the caves are used to exploit tourism in the area. The discoveries have been transferred for exhibition and preservation to the Canary Museum.
