Hiking

The rock gate "Peña Horadada" is located at the mouth of the Barranco de la Peña near the pirate caves of Ajuy. It is a high cliff in which the strong surf has made a hole. The French conqueror Jean de Bethencourt is said to have arrived on Fuerteventura at this point in 1402.

It is worth the detour, further from the sea caves along the coast to this rock gate.
