Culture and landscape
Charming village in the north of Lanzarote, located in the greenest area of the island. Haría manages to keep intact its agricultural and artisanal essence, located in a unique landscape between valleys and ravines that make its orography different from the rest of the island.
The past of Haria is linked to the culture of water, to the need to supply the population with this scarce resource in Lanzarote. Its name derives from two words from the ancient indigenous language, those of Faria and Chafariz, which mean Natural Water Source. The Plaza de La Constitución is built on the old water reservoir of the town, and through its streets you can still see the wells that were used until a few decades ago to collect the scarce rainwater.
In the main valley, the Valley of the Thousand Palms, there is an aquifer although its capacity is not sufficient to supply the town with water.
This guided walk lasts approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes and is limited to a maximum of 10 participants. It begins in the village of Haría, from where we gradually climb along dirt tracks through cultivated land, terraces and traditional volcanic sand fields that reveal how agriculture has shaped the valley.
At Aganada Viewpoint, we stop to enjoy views of the Risco cliffs and Famara beach, take photographs and learn about the geological formation of northern Lanzarote. We then continue around the valley and return through Malpaso ravine, one of the greener sections of the route, where the ground becomes more uneven but without steep slopes.
The walk ends back in Haría, beside the Saturday craft market, which you can visit afterwards. It is designed for travellers who want to walk at a relaxed pace, understand the rural landscape and discover northern Lanzarote beyond its viewpoints.
