¿Why Lanzarote?
Lanzarote is a land of enormous contrasts combining in perfect harmony. Its volcanic facet gives it some Dantesque landscapes that are difficult to imagine unless you walk through them.
But its idyllic valleys in the north with centuries-old palm groves and beautiful farming villages show a completely different side of Lanzarote.
The ancient Lanzarote people travelled their island on foot, moving from north to south and from east to west with goods. From the south came fish. From the north, pulses and vegetables… Today these ancestral paths allow us to offer the best hiking routes in Lanzarote, over the course of a week full of contrasts.
Volcanic landscapes
The volcano erupted for six long years. Day by day Lorenzo Curbelo, the island’s parish priest, wrote down the agony. On the 1st of September 1730 the earth opened up, creating a scene of fire and lava. Nine villages disappeared under the slag. Lanzarote was depopulated. Its inhabitants emigrated.
Today the reality is different. The island has taken advantage of the disaster of the past. The spectacular volcanic landscapes have become a major tourist attraction. Walking and hiking in Lanzarote through its volcanoes and lava fields is an unrepeatable experience.
Walking tours on Lanzarote
Our programme of 5 best walks in Lanzarote covers the most diverse landscapes. It also includes a trip to the neighbouring island of La Graciosa, only 30 minutes away by boat. The routes range from luscious palm groves, through volcanic scenery to trails along the coast, with beaches of crystal clear water and pristine white sand.
These are routes of a medium level of difficulty, suitable for people in normal physical condition who do sport from time to time.
Island nature
Lanzarote is an island of gentle relief. The Los Ajaches mountain range in the south and the Peñas del Chache in the north do not exceed 700 metres in altitude. The trade wind clouds cross the island without stopping to deposit their load of humidity. This is why the island’s nature is sparse, with scrub vegetation predominating. Only in the northern valleys do we find extensive palm groves that offer a different view of the island.
Cesar Manrique
The multifaceted Lanzarote artist Cesar Manrique has left his mark on his island. A forerunner of conservationist ideas, he promoted measures to prevent tourist overcrowding that are still in force today. In addition, he devised unique architectural spaces perfectly integrated into the volcanic environment of Lanzarote. Today we can visit them through different centres such as the Cesar Manrique Foundation, the Jameos del Agua or the Mirador del Rio, among others.
