Cumbre Vieja Natural Park

The Cumbre Vieja Natural Park spans the central and southern regions of La Palma island, featuring volcanic cones, lava flows, and Canary Island pine forests.

Established in 1987, the park preserves significant volcanic formations, including those from the Teneguía volcano's last eruption in 1971.

The park's landscape reflects the volcanic heritage of the Canary Islands through its network of traditional hiking paths and observation points.

Visitors can access multiple hiking trails throughout the park, with the Volcano Route offering a north-to-south traverse of the protected area.

The park's elevation and geographical position allow observers to view neighboring Canary Islands while standing among endemic laurel forests and volcanic formations.
