Hiking
The church of San Pedro in Vilaflor (16th century) appears modest from the outside, but inside there are exceptional examples of Canarian wood carving. Saint Peter is depicted in the form of an impressive alabaster statue and is further evidence of the artistic treasure that the small town of Vilaflor is home to. Some women religious who still live in the neighboring monastery look after the church and maintain friendly relations with Guatemala in order to continue the work of their esteemed brother.
