Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

With 1000 meters in diameter and 200 meters depth this place is a perfect contribution to take a chance for some physical training and to spend between 1,5 and two hours exploring old volcanic crater. It is full of aloes and different type of cactus, the road down is a perfect walk, and climbing back on the top is a good cardio exercise.

Plenty of walks here, but we wanted to just view the fantastic caldera. The main road around the rim has a pull in by a couple of cafés which is crowded, difficult to park & doesn't have the best views. Drive past this area to the golf club at the end. Park & enjoy the stunning view from this angle, then drive back & up the Pico de Bandana road to the viewpoint for a totally different angle. On your way down stop at the Caldera de Bandama restaurant for a delicious lunch & yet another fabby view, this time towards the sea.

After a day sightseeing further south on the island, we took a short detour on the way back to El Estanco to visit the Caldera. Really well signposted off the main roads and plenty of space when we visited to stop at the side of the road and admire the view.

Narrow road to the summit. Watch out for locals and buses that drive in the middle of the road and don’t adhere to the speed limit. Lovely view from the top. Plenty of parking available on our visit. Fantastic view of the surroundings. No toilets at the top so plan ahead if taking children

If you don’t have a car and don’t like sightseeing touristic buses this place is perfectly reachable by 311 bus from Las Palmas (Bandama bus stop). The caldera itself is the hidden gem. Beautiful scenery and interesting terrain. You better get a good walking shoes there as the path is a bit slippery sometimes.

A nightmare if you are afraid of heights. Had to abort. Spectacular view, on the other hand. Nice plants.

Excellent place to visit and hike or just to take a look if you don't want to hike as its a large impressive caldera full of trees and plants.

We opted to hike both the rim of the caldera and down to the bottom where there is short circular path. Each trail is around 3.5k. We are reasonably fit and they took around an hour apiece. Technically easy but lots of incline and decline on mainly loose ash/gravelly tracks. Great coastal views from the rim trail. The interior of the caldera is shaded unless the sun is overhead.

Handy cafe/restaurant at the start/end point. Parking is roadside.

Amazing site. Visited as part of tour. One of the biggest and deepest volcano craters. (I've seen a few!). Interesting history and development including view of green pristine golf course looking out of place in topography.
