This hike will take you to the volcanic south of La Palma along the ridge of Cumbre Vieja is the most incredible hike in vocanic landscape out of all the Canary Islands. 

It crosses the main volcanoes area of the canary island, from El Refugio del Pilar to Fuencaliente.  It shows plenty of colour contrasts,  the green of the Canarian pines at the begining and also at the end, the black lava and yellow-reds oxidation tones of volcanic terrains.

This route follows the volcanic ridge that divides the south of the island into two sides, east and west, allows hiking above the clouds of the east side, to contemplate the incredible views of the west side of the islands and other islands as Tenerife, La Gomera and El Hierro.

The end of this tour is in Fuencaliente, in the village of Los Canarios, a small but cosy town where you will have the opportunity to enjoy a nice and refreshing drink before you organize your way back to your “home in La Palma”
