Timanfaya

Different volcanic eruptions and magma activity throughout its history, make this land what it is today. From the nature viewpoint of Montaña Rajada you can admire a vast sea of lava that reaches the coastline. Particularly impressive are: the undulations, strident forms created by the lava...Since then its inhabitants have learned to live alongside this unusual and pretty landscape, and have even dry farmed melons, onions, tomatoes and also vines in La Geria. Access on foot allowed, provided you stay on the coastal area of the National Park and use the trail that runs along the shore. To gain access to the rest of the park, you must arrange your visit through one of the Visitor Centres. The area was devastated by volcanic eruptions over a six years period, 1730-1736, and again in the XIX century, mainly in 1824.
