This place is 6 minutes away from home. The drago of Agalán (Dracaena draco) is the most ancient of La Gomera, it has more than 400 years!!! It is considered a symbol for the island, appearing in the coat of arms of the municipality of Alajeró. It is located in the ravine of Tajonaje.
There’s a nice footpath, made of lava rocks, taking you in about 1km from the car park to the drago. Follow the signs “Drago Centenario”. At half of the way there’s a mirador just in case you don’t want to do the last steps (also the most steep of the path), but its impressive size is enjoyable when close.
