Right on the edge of the lava flow you can see the new vent and the lava flow with the buried houses

Currently (December 2025), you may only enter the area around the new Tajogaite volcano on La Palma with certified guides. Toxic gases are still frequently released from the highly active volcanic area. A guided tour costs around €30 for a 3-hour hike. The tour is definitely worthwhile. You can experience, observe, and even touch the effects of volcanic power up close. You stand in awe before the enormous lava mountain of Tajogaite, its summit colored yellow, white, reddish, and black by various minerals. The force of the flowing magma has fractured the dome, forming a crater-like depression. The name, derived from the Guanche language, "Split Mountain," is fitting.

And faced with the power of this place, you realize the role we humans play.
