Hiking
A farmer made paths and kept the grass short to make it easy for the tortoises to find food. The giants like to drag themselves across his property, much to the delight of the animal-loving visitors. But they are all wild animals and it is not certain whether one always sees some. But keep your eyes open, you can also see turtles from the car on the side of the road.
A lava tunnel on the site completes the picture.
