Walk 8 kilometers around Tajogaite, La Palma’s newest volcano, on a four-hour guided trek with roundtrip van transport. You’ll cross ash, view lava flows, and learn how the 2021 eruption reshaped the island. Guides including Bebe, Gianluca, Juan, Amanda, and Steven are known for clear explanations and a friendly pace.

“We had a great experience on this tour! Our tour guide Bebe was very well informed on the vulcanic landscape and the eruption of 2021. She told us a lot of interesting facts and explained them in a clear way, with a bit of humor. It was very special to walk in an area that is restricted for general walking and we were able to see the vulcanic craters from fairly up close. The landscape constantly felt surreal, so it was nice that we regularly took a little break to look around and take some photos. I would say the tour is very doable for fairly fit people and that…”

5.La Palma: Tajogaite Volcano Guided Hike

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 275 reviews · 4h 30m · from $43Best value

Walk 6.5 km across the fresh volcanic ash of Tajogaite in Cumbre Vieja, reaching within 40 meters of its three main craters and 3 meters from the authorized south crater limit. German guide Lucy explains the 2021 eruption, sulfur deposits, volcanic vapor, and its effect on La Palma. Expect steep slopes, loose ash, and about 4.5 hours on foot.

“Die Informationen von Lucy in perfektem D und Sp waren sehr umfassend. Man spürte ihr Engagement für die Sache und sie machte uns verständlich, dass der Ausbruch eines Vulkans nicht nur negativo Seiten hat. Von der technischen Seite her müsste man vielleicht deutlicher darauf hinweisen, dass die Tour wegen des Höhenunterschiedes für ü70jährige gute Kondition voraussetzt. Bei uns dauerte die Tour bei rassigem Tempo auf und ab mehr als 5 Stunden, zum Teil auch auf tiefer loser Asche, Ältere Jahrgänge hatten z.T. echt Mühe.”
