The largest cactus park in Europe. You will be amazed by the huge size of many of the species of the more than 1,200 to be found here. This 15,000 square metre space in La Aldea de San Nicolás, in the west of Gran Canaria can be visited in about an hour on a lively and entertaining tour.
A cacti park with thousands of cacti imported from countries like Mexico, Madagascar, Guatemala and Bolivia, it’s set between palms, dragon trees and aloe.
There’s also a Guanche Cave and a traditional restaurant serving typical Canarian dishes with an impressive wine cellar. Another place of interest is a large amphitheatre used for lucha canaria (Canarian wrestling) bouts.
