More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You kick the dust off the road as the dune-slate of northern Lanzarote unfolds—xeric scrub scraping at the buggy’s sides, trade winds pushing the horizon like a restless hand. The route threads past Guatiza’s cactus terraces, then across former lava quarries and whitewashed villages, finishing near barren cliffs and the small, wind-chiselled coves of the island’s rugged northeast.
