Lanzarote, the volcanic island par excellence. Home of the Volcanoes Natural Park, which more than a corner of the Canary Islands, seems like a piece of another planet that has been hidden in the center of the island.

It is right in this natural park where the impressive volcanic cones…

January 11, 2022,Lanzarote 1 Tanz auf dem Vulkan. Um die Caldera Blanca

Wow. A great opening tour for Lanzarote. The view into the Caldera Blanca crater and the view of the gigantic lava flow from the 1730-1736 eruptions is breathtaking.

Many hikers take the route from the parking lot to the highest point of the crater. Most turn around at the top, overlooking the appeal of the circumnavigation.

We were able to go on a second hike. The weather is unstable, a stiff breeze is blowing. The round is great and quite strenuous. Also through the underground. We had to be careful not to be blown away.

The large crater Caldera Blanca has a diameter of 1200 m and is 20 million years old. The lava masses around …

May 20, 2024,Caldera Blanca y Caldereta – circular por la parte superior de la caldera

The trail offers truly breathtaking views. The first 2 kilometers are relatively flat, surrounded by volcanic rocks in a barren landscape that feels almost alien. Then begins the ascent to the volcano's crater: not particularly challenging, but it’s important not to have vertigo and to watch your step. The wind was also very strong, so it’s crucial to consider this …

Sturdy hiking shoes recommended, partly loose scree.

DO NOT DO THIS ROUTE AND DO NOT NAVIGATE THE CRATER CLOCKWISE. This route takes tou unncessarily across rocky technical lave fields and clockwise encounters you with a dangerous Loose gravel steep descent.
How so many people have liked this actual route around the crater is staggering!
Go anti-clockwise, avoid crossing the black rocky lava fields.

December 8, 2023,🌋🌋 Volcans Blanca & Caldereta

Just MAGNIFICENT, the ancient Volcano 🌋 Blanca with an impressive diameter. I think this is the hike not to be missed on Lanzarote with a magnificent view of the National Park - ℹ️ for parking, don't hesitate to go to the end of the path and for better visibility of the National Park, do it preferably in the morning.

Calm and sunny... perfect for a walk around the crater with a wide view over Lanzarote.
I see a small group of sheep climbing around the crater rim. Attention!
Highly recommend this 🌋 tour
