La Palma: Tajogaite Volcano Guided Trek

Experience the dramatic beauty of La Palma in Spain as you embark on a guided trek to the Tajogaite Volcano, the island’s youngest volcanic formation. This journey lets you witness the raw power of nature and explore the striking landscapes shaped by the 2021 eruption.

Your adventure begins at Tacande, the historic volcano known as the burnt mountain since 1480. From here, you’ll set out on an 8-kilometer hike along comfortable paths, gradually ascending to the new Cumbre Vieja volcano. Along the way, your expert guide will share fascinating insights into the island’s volcanic history.

As you approach the summit, take in panoramic views of the lava flows that transformed the land in just 85 days. The route circles the back edge of the volcano, allowing you to observe the aftermath of the eruption without climbing onto the crater itself.

Throughout the trek, learn how the lava destroyed over 3,000 buildings, reshaped forests, and created a new peninsula. Your guide will point out key landmarks and explain how the fiery eruption carved a unique landscape, making this a truly memorable experience.

The tour lasts about four hours and includes roundtrip transportation from the meeting point in Villa de Mazo. Group sizes are kept small for a more personal experience, with tours available in English, Spanish, and on select days, German.
