    El Hierro

    February 2 in Spain ⋅ 🌬 17 °C

    From my balcony I can see two islands, La Palma and El Hierro. This is El Hierro (hierro: Spanish for iron, derived from the earlier Italian name Ferro).

    It is the westernmost of the Canary Islands and with 3, 59% of the archipelago's land area, the smallest of the seven islands with its own administration. El Hierro is 1. 458 kilometers from the Spanish mainland (Cádiz), has an area of ​​268,71 km² and a population of 11.298.
