Top 4 Caves アルチピエラゴデチニホでの

You should definitely have a head for heights and be experienced. The short descent to the cave entrance is completely unguarded and narrow, and with wind gusts of up to 80 km/h, you have to be extremely careful. However, it's a very unknown place and all the more beautiful for that. The path there can seem a bit unofficial in places, as if you're on the wrong path, but just keep walking towards the coast and use the paved paths whenever possible.

Also a great opportunity for beautiful photos 😍

Spectacular cave carved into the rock. CAUTION! A head for heights and surefootedness are required. Unsecured!

Can be reached on a footpath below the edge, parking is available at the "Ermita de las Nieves" or on the small street "Lugar Diseminado Haria". Also possible as a hiking destination from the Bungalows Famara via the old donkey path "Los Caleteros" (1.5 - 2 hours walk (exhausting!). There are the natural caves below the path to Peñas del Chache and a whole series of caves below the escarpment that used to serve as a quarry. The stones from these caves were transported by donkey over the Los Caleteros to La Caleta and used there to build the first houses. Even when the Famara bungalows were built in the 1970s, stones were sometimes taken from the caves for paths.

For centuries, these caves served as natural shelters for the inhabitants against marauding pirates. Today, local youth parties regularly take place here

These caves also served the locals as a place of retreat during raids by the Spanish or British pirates in the past centuries. Today it is a popular party location for young people from the surrounding villages

Several caves in a small volcanic crater

Wonderful views of the north coast of Lanzarote. The clouds are almost touching the barren edge of the Risco de Famara. The caves carved by the indigenous people, the Guanches, in the rock, stretch mysteriously far into the mountain. They are quite hidden, located a few meters below on the steep slope.
