The Lunar Landscape of Lanzarote – Full Details

Youandrsquo;ll be collected from your Costa Teguise, Arrecife or Puerto del Carmen resort for the start of this exciting full-day guided tour.

The protected areas of Los Volcanes Nature Park and Timanfaya National Park show clear evidence of both relatively recent and historical volcanic activity in Lanzarote.

Eruptions on the island were recorded between 1730 and 1736 and have taken place as recently as 1824.

During the tour, youandrsquo;ll cover a very informative route, which includes walking across old lava flows and up to volcanic cones.

The incredible other worldly lunar landscape of Lanzarote is no more evident than in these spectacular craters in which you can still clearly see ancient lava lakes and tunnels.

Because of the dry climate of the island, vegetation grows very slowly leaving the landscape like a vast volcanic open-air museum – just the way the whole of our planet looked millions of years ago!
