Trekking in Lanzarote - Art, Colors, and Volcanic Emotions

Lanzarote is an island rich in unique landscapes, history, and culture, enhanced by the dedication of its inhabitants and conservation initiatives. During our trekking adventure, we will explore its volcanoes, natural parks, and coastal trails that offer spectacular views, passing through ancient vineyards, gardens, and lava caves transformed into works of art.
The first inhabitants were the Majos, of North African origin, who lived off fishing and agriculture. In 1402, with the arrival of the Normans, Canarian society underwent profound changes, becoming an Atlantic crossroads. In the 18th century, the eruptions of Timanfaya covered a third of the island in lava and ash, marking a turning point in its history. Today, 42% of the territory is a protected area, with an economy centered on tourism. Much of the credit for safeguarding the architectural and environmental heritage goes to César Manrique, an artist native to the island who, through his works, helped protect Lanzarote from overdevelopment. Among his most famous creations are the Jameos del Agua, the Jardín de Cactus, and the Mirador del Rio, which can be visited today thanks to the foundation dedicated to him.
