Tajogaite volcano, Recent volcano in Cumbre Vieja, La Palma, Spain.
The Tajogaite volcano rises 1122 meters above sea level, featuring a main crater measuring 172 meters by 106 meters with six additional vents.
The 2021 eruption lasted 85 days from September to December, marking the longest recorded volcanic activity in La Palma's documented history.
The name Tajogaite originates from the Benahoarita language of La Palma's original inhabitants, referring to the split mountain where it emerged.
Visitors can access the volcano through guided tours starting at Llano de Los Jables, following a 5-kilometer circular path at 1200 meters elevation.
The volcanic activity expanded La Palma's territory by 47 hectares through lava flows that reached the ocean and created new land masses.
