Description

Hike to the crater of Tajogaite Volcano on a guided day trip from La Palma. Learn how the landscape of western La Palma changed after 85 days of intense volcanic activity and visit Mirador de Tajuya.
This tour, which combines hiking with a bus excursion, will start with a hiking route of approximately 3 hours and 5 kilometres from Llano del Jable. You will walk, always accompanied by authorised guides, along the new path that has been created specifically to reach the viewpoint set up to see the crater of the new Tajogaite volcano. Along the route, you will see different control and measuring instruments with which the eruptive process is still being studied today, you will be amazed to see how the Canary Island pine, once again, wins the battle against catastrophes and, in short, how this natural phenomenon has transformed the Aridane Valley.
On the excursion you will also visit the Puerto de Tazacorte, from where you will see the new extension of the island caused by the lava reaching the sea, known as the lava delta. In the district of La Laguna, an area visibly affected by the lava flows from the volcano, a road has been built to connect the villages of the Aridane Valley.
Finally, you will visit the Plaza de Tajuya, which became an improvised and privileged viewpoint of the volcanic eruption, and Tacande, which is one of the neighbourhoods closest to the birthplace of the volcano. You will be amazed when you see both the cone and the extension of the field of lava flows that reaches the west coast of La Palma.
Get to know, with respect, a unique place that was born in La Palma island: the Tajogaite volcano.
