3.La Palma: Tajogaite Volcano Guided Hike

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 275 reviews · 4h 30m · from $43Best value

Walk 6.5 km through the fresh volcanic ash of Tajogaite, only 3 meters from its south crater and about 40 meters from the main craters. Guide Lucy leads the 4.5-hour hike in German, sharing the 2021 eruption’s story, sulfur formations, and its effect on La Palma.

“Die Informationen von Lucy in perfektem D und Sp waren sehr umfassend. Man spürte ihr Engagement für die Sache und sie machte uns verständlich, dass der Ausbruch eines Vulkans nicht nur negativo Seiten hat. Von der technischen Seite her müsste man vielleicht deutlicher darauf hinweisen, dass die Tour wegen des Höhenunterschiedes für ü70jährige gute Kondition voraussetzt. Bei uns dauerte die Tour bei rassigem Tempo auf und ab mehr als 5 Stunden, zum Teil auch auf tiefer loser Asche, Ältere Jahrgänge hatten z.T. echt Mühe.”
