About This Adventure
Te proponemos un viaje al corazón volcánico de Lanzarote: el "Parque Nacional de Timanfaya"
Duracion
5 Horas
Iniciaremos la ruta dirección “Parque Nacional de Timanfaya” haciendo la “Ruta de los Volcanes” en la que vemos diferentes tipos de cráteres combinados por un cromatismo vivo que refleja el origen de la erupción, los materiales que emitió o hasta la intensidad con la que explotó. Comprobaremos la huella de dichas erupciones que sucedieron hace casi 300 años al realizar unas demostraciones geotérmicas, es decir, comprobaremos el calor que todavía emana de la tierra de diferentes maneras, todas ellas muy espectaculares.
Dentro del “Parque Nacional de Timanfaya”, tenemos la posibilidad de hacer un paseo en camello (Opcional - no incluido en el precio).
