Tinajo is a municipality in the southwest of Lanzarote strictly linked to the Timanfaya eruptions.
The name of Tinajo is linked to the main volcanoes of the island: Los Cuervos, Montaña Colorada, Caldera Blanca, Tinguatón or Guiguan. But Tinajo is also associated with the beautiful town of Mancha Blanca, in whose church is the figure of the Virgen de Los Dolores, patron saint of the entire island.
Important from the agricultural point of view, in its municipality is also the town of La Santa, headquarters of the international surfing championship, El Quemao.
Caldera Blanca: Hiking across lava and the memories of Timanfaya
Walking through Caldera Blanca means stepping into the living history of Lanzarote.
This circular, medium-difficulty route takes us through the story of the Timanfaya eruptions—not just as a natural phenomenon, but as a deeply human experience: how the islanders lived through it, what they felt, and how they rebuilt their lives among the ashes.
The landscape is as overwhelming as it is beautiful: solidified lava, fields of ash, silence… and, from the summit, spectacular views of the crater.
We’ll reach an altitude of 468 metres, with an elevation gain of 250 metres, and walk around the rim of a crater 1.2 km in diameter and around 200 metres deep.
This is a powerful, transformative hike—not recommended for people with vertigo—that connects you to the fiery heart of the island.
