TREKKING IN A LUNAR LANDSCAPE<br />
The Volcanoes Natural Park,<br />
together with the Timanfaya<br />
National Park, is one of the areas<br />
affected by the eruptions of 1730-36<br />
and 1824.<br />
A visit that will lead us to understand<br />
the internal forces of our planet and<br />
what it was like millions of years ago.<br />
Pick up at the different points and departure to the Volcanoes Natural<br />
Park, where we will make a 6 kilometer walking route, entering craters,<br />
walking between volcanoes and crossing lava flows. I return around 3:00<br />
p.m. approximately.<br />
In this natural space we carry out an itinerary in which the visitor can<br />
discover the wonderful world of volcanoes by crossing lava flows,<br />
ascending volcanic cones where there are channels and lava tubes, lava<br />
lakes and spectacular craters. All these formations are preserved in<br />
perfect condition since Lanzarote has an arid climate, hardly any<br />
vegetation grows, preserving the landscape as if it were a gigantic openair<br />
rock museum.<br />
You will also be able to understand the slow but constant resurgence of<br />
life on the lava.<br />
Duration: 6-7 hours approx.<br />
Approximate distance 7 km<br />
Level: Easy / 3 hours walk<br />
Picnic, warm clothes and closed shoes,<br />
without heels and sturdy soles are<br />
recommended.
