View of the volcanic coast at El Golfo

Highlight • Viewpoint

Very nice place with good fish restaurants. At the end of the village (at the children's playground) begins the coastal path through the lava fields. Magnificent views of the sea, but also inland to the volcanic cones.

Lava Arch

Highlight • Natural Monument

Since El Golfo is on the edge of the national park, you also have a great view of the volcanic craters. A trip to El Golfo is therefore very worthwhile.

October 31, 2021,Küstenwanderweg von El Golfo bis Playa del Paso (Lanzarote)

Great coastal hiking trail from Golfo on the edge of Timonfaya National Park. In total, it is 13 km long, but we only walked part of it, which is said to be the most beautiful part with the most impressive formations.

November 9, 2022,Lanzarote 🇪🇸 - Volcanic finish

The last walk is during a ⚡️lightning visit⚡️ to Lanzarote. A walk I don't finish. And that includes explanation.

Card makers are doing something weird. For example, they color national parks, such as Timanfaya, green. A visually oriented person like me expects green. That's how I chose Lanzarote in the first place. But nothing turns out to be less true. …
