First of all, we will visit the impressive "Timanfaya National Park" doing the "Route of the Volcanoes" in which we see different types of craters combined by a lively chromatism that reflects the origin of the eruption, the materials it emitted, or even the intensity with which it exploded. We will verify the footprint of these eruptions that happened almost 300 years ago by conducting geothermal demonstrations, that is, we will check the heat that still emanates from the earth in different ways, all of them very spectacular. 

Our next visit is the "Cueva de los Verdes", a volcanic structure located in the municipality of Haria in the north of Lanzarote. It is a volcanic tube that originates from the eruption of the Volcan de La Corona and was formed approximately 5000 years ago (before the National Park of the Fire Mountains - Timanfaya), when very fluid lavas descended below more compact lavas creating a large elongated cavity. This volcanic tunnel has a total length of seven kilometers from the volcano of La Corona to the coast and extends under the sea for another 1.5 km. 

As the final touch, we visit the spectacular volcanic cave "Jameos del Agua", also transformed by the Lanzarote artist "César Manrique" and which aims to show the visitor a space for contemplation of nature hardly intervened by man. 

The "Jameos del Agua" is a huge hole that is produced as a consequence of the collapse of the roof of a volcanic tube and located inside the volcanic tunnel produced by the eruption of the Volcan de la Corona. The tunnel is known to have a length of 6 km, of which at least 1.5 km run under the sea surface. The Jameos del Agua are located in the section of this tunnel closest to the coast. 

An excursion that will not leave you indifferent when visiting the 3 great TREASURES that this magical Canarian island hides.
