The Barranco Oscuro Nature Reserve is located in the Doramas Rural Park. Barranco Oscuro was declared nature reserve due to the fact it consists of a particular vulnerable ecosystem: a laurel forest which shelters some 40 endemic species of plants and invertebrates. The reserve is also home to a pine forest (pinar, in Spanish).
The Pilancones Nature Park is located in San Bartolome de Tirajana, and this location enhances its tourist visibility and magnetism.
In order to get from Gran Canaria to Fuerteventura, tourists can rely on the services provided by Trasmediterranea, Naviera Armas, Binter or Islas Airways.
