Complejo volcánico Lanzarote, Volcanic complex in Lanzarote, Spain.

The volcanic system of Lanzarote consists of more than 100 volcanoes across the island that created black lava fields, craters, and cinder cones. The region displays various elevations and terrain types that resulted from repeated volcanic activity over a long period.

The largest eruption recorded in the Canary Islands began on 1 September 1730 and ended on 16 April 1736. Over that period the Montaña del Fuego crater ejected roughly 4 billion cubic metres of lava, which covered about 200 km² of the island. The volcanic material of Lanzarote is concentrated along a northwest–southeast fault zone crossing the island.

Local people learned to grow grapes in the black volcanic soil using methods passed down through generations that still shape how the land looks today. This shows how communities adapted to harsh conditions and made farming possible in an environment that seems barren at first glance.

The region is easy to reach and visitors can walk through the lava fields on marked paths or join guided tours. Access is straightforward in most areas, though sturdy shoes and plenty of water are recommended for exploring the terrain.

The 1730–1736 eruption at Montaña del Fuego ejected roughly 4 billion cubic metres of lava, covering about 200 km² of the island. The volcanic complex also includes more than 100 scoria cones and craters, among them Monte Corona, Caldera Blanca and Pico Partido. The island's volcanic material follows a northwest–southeast fault zone.
