Roque de los Muchachos is the highest point on the island La Palma, one of the Canary Islands. It’s situated in the north of the island and reaches 2426 meters. From the top you have magnificent views at the “Caldera de Taburiente” and the rest of the island. You can drive all the way up to a parking place next to the rock. Either take the road up the mountain from the Westside at Hoya Grande or from the Eastside at Miranda (Santa Cruz). On both sides there are signposts that lead you up the hairpin roads.
