May 9, 2024,Lanzarote - Vom Atlantik zur Caldera des Montaña Roja - Trailrunning

The short trail starts directly by the sea at a staircase below the beach promenade.

The run leads uphill, initially moderately through a built-up area, later somewhat steeply along an unpaved trail to the crater of the almost 200 m high Montaña Roja, a small volcano on the Atlantic coast.
