La Palma: Tajogaite Volcano Guided Trek

Experience an unforgettable guided trek to the Tajogaite Volcano on La Palma, Spain, where you’ll witness the dramatic landscape shaped by the island’s most recent volcanic eruption in 2021. This tour immerses you in the unique story of Europe’s newest land and the powerful natural forces that created it.

Your adventure begins in Tacande, site of the island’s first recorded volcano from 1480, known locally as the Burnt Mountain. From here, you’ll set out on a scenic ascent to the Cumbre Vieja volcano, which erupted spectacularly over 85 days and transformed the region’s geography.

Follow a well-maintained 8-kilometer trail as you circle the back edge of the volcano, taking in sweeping views of the fresh lava flows and the striking blackened terrain. Throughout the trek, your expert guide shares captivating insights into the eruption and the remarkable geological changes it brought.

Along the route, you’ll learn how the lava devastated over 3,000 buildings and forests, yet also created a brand-new peninsula jutting into the sea. Observe firsthand where molten rock forged its path and left a lasting mark on La Palma’s landscape.
