Hike to La Corona volcano and the Famara cliffs

What the experience includes

We start in the village from where we head to the Corona volcano. During the ascent to its crater we will be delighted with beautiful views of an agricultural landscape mainly dedicated to vines as well as the spectacular lava flows called malpaíses with enormous basaltic blocks extending towards an emerald sea. After seeing its enormous crater, we will go around its east side to observe in the distance how its 7.6 km long volcanic tube runs, of which 1.6 km are nowadays submerged as this eruption occurred during the height of the last ice age, when the sea level was more than 90 metres below the current one.

Afterwards we will descend and walk a few kilometres in the central part of the cliff of Famara, which with its 22 km long, rises like an impressive rock wall from sea level to more than 500 metres high, being able to see at a short distance from us the top of the island; Las Peñas del Chache with its 670 m and the wonderful view of the Chinijo Archipelago as a whole with the island of La Graciosa in the foreground, really unforgettable!

Due to the altitude and the influence of the trade winds during this tour the visitor will be able to enjoy one of the areas with the greatest floral diversity, with a large number of endemic species, as well as ornithological diversity, which our naturalist guide will show you.
