Highlights
  • Parque Natural de Cumbre Vieja - Discover the newly formed volcano on La Palma and its impact. This territory emerged on September 19, 2021, becoming the most recent addition to the continent. The aftermath has been a mix of fortunes.
    The most devastating aspect was the loss of homes, workplaces, and recreational spots for numerous La Palma families, leaving behind only memories of the time spent in those locales.
    On the brighter side, it’s a chance to witness the awe-inspiring capabilities of Mother Nature, who in a short span of time, has sculpted a breathtaking landscape.
    During our excursion, we’ll guide you to the volcano’s summit via a 4.5 km trek along a relatively easy trail, showcasing the volcano’s raw power.

Perfect on a cruise day in port - A fabulous experience. We had a small group of 5 and our guide, Amanda, was very informative and attentive. The walk is not too difficult and doesn’t need any special equipment, if you can easily manage a 3 mile walk across fields and a couple of gentle hills you’ll be fine. Be prepared to get dusty and sand in your shoes though. We did it as a self-organised excursion on a cruise ship stop in s/c de la Palma. Very easy to get the 300 bus from right outside the port to El Paso - €1.35 each way and it takes about 40 minutes. Much better than any cruise ship tour!
