Guided Volcanic Trekking in Northern Lanzarote

Context The trek takes place in northern Lanzarote, centered on the Volcán de la Corona, a 604-meter volcanic cone designated a Natural Protected Monument. This area blends dramatic volcanic landscapes, green valleys, and centuries-old vineyards, with a total elevation gain of approximately 300 meters. The wind carries the scent of dry earth and resilient lichens thriving on volcanic soil.

The experience During the guided hike, you’ll walk on paths of volcanic rock and earth, ascending to the crater of the Volcán de la Corona to enjoy sweeping views of the Chinijo Archipelago and La Graciosa. You’ll explore a 6-kilometer-long volcanic tunnel within the crater, pass through vineyards protected by stone walls, and conclude the journey with breathtaking vistas from the Famara cliffs, where the wind echoes through the landscape.

For whom This activity is suitable for hikers with moderate experience and good physical fitness, as well as families with children over 7 years old who are accustomed to long walks. It is not recommended for individuals with limited mobility or those unprepared for sustained uphill climbs.

Local context The vineyards along the route reflect Lanzarote’s deep-rooted agricultural tradition, where stone walls shield grapevines from wind and arid conditions. The local community continues these time-honored practices, seamlessly integrating them into the volcanic landscape and enriching the cultural depth of the experience.
