“There is nothing more important for conservation than people's awareness”.
Ángel Fdez. López
Garajonay National Park is located on the Canary Island of La Gomera, in the Atlantic Ocean.
Garajonay is the legacy of the ancient subtropical forests that populated Southern Europe and North Africa millions of years ago.
A forest that is the missing link in the history of vegetation on earth. Only here is it possible to guess what these forests were like before the arrival of humans to the islands.
