El Hierro is a beautiful and diverse island. Today we drove the length of El Hierro to the light house on the extreme western edge of the island. The terrain around the lighthouse is volcanic and stark. On our drive we saw lots of roadside art.
Not far from the lighthouse we parked and walked out to the Prime Meridian monument. The monument is the farthest point west in Spain. According to Wikipedia this spot was named as the prime meridian in 1634. It was almost a mile out to the monument. We had a very enjoyable walk.
