Los Volcanes Natural Park

Los Volcanes Natural Park extends over 10,158 hectares, featuring numerous volcanic cones, lava fields, tunnels, and solidified formations across the landscape.

The park's terrain was shaped by volcanic eruptions between 1730 and 1736, followed by additional activity in 1824, which brought ancient rock materials to the surface.

The neighboring towns of Tias, Tinajo, and Yaiza contribute to the region's identity with their traditional Canarian architecture and customs.

Visitors can access the park freely through the village of Tinajo, with clear paths leading to geological formations and observation points throughout the protected area.

The park houses nearly one hundred species of lichens that have adapted to grow on the volcanic surfaces, creating patterns on the black rock formations.
