Playa de Famara

Highlight • Beach

Here you can stop and if necessary dare a little hop into the blue wet. Beautiful beach.

This cove is at the southern end of Famara beach. It extends at the foot of the Risco de Famara, on the western coast of Lanzarote. In the area you can find old aboriginal settlements prior to the colonization of the crown.

Entrance to Timanfaya National Park

Highlight • Natural Monument

This is one of the entrances to the National Park. A past the lunar landscapes that can be seen here. The area is very protected so it is very important to respect the environment.

Timanfaya National Park Entrance

Highlight • Volcano

From Yaiza, a very nice climb up. It's easy to drive because it's evenly steep. Finally at the top and then, 10€ for the rest of the way to the visitor center. It was too expensive for me, but I've been there before so I know about the demonstration and did the bus tour of the volcanoes. It's very nice and I would recommend it.

Road through Timanfaya National Park

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This road, the LZ-67, along with the LZ-56 (both lead to the village of Mancha Blanca) and the LZ-703 (the road that takes you past Los Hervideros), are the visual highlights of Lanzarote.
I've lost count of how many times I've crossed Timanfaya, and I'm struck by how amazed I am every time... I'm amazed by
- the splendor of the wild, black landscape
- how strong the headwind is when you cycle this road from Uga
- how hard the wind blows you downhill as you fly towards Uga
- how wonderfully smooth the asphalt
- how courteous Spanish drivers are when they meticulously maintain the one-and-a-half-meter distance when overtaking you
If you're coming from Uga, the long climb is logically the physical challenge. Once at the top, you have a beautiful viewpoint at the entrance to the national park. You'll find it less physically demanding if you come from Mancha Blanca.
No matter how you drive this road, both sides offer stunning views.
I love it!

Easy to drive even in force 5 winds. It's a matter of pushing until Caletta and then there's a tailwind to Tinajo over the Feuerberge

No matter how often you drive this lap, the landscape is always terrific

Directions to Caleta via the secret route to Conil, almost no cars and a relatively wind-protected route. I have no idea why it took us 10 years to discover the street 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️

The wind is killing me this year and I'll never find the right gear up to Tinajo, but the route is simply beautiful!

As always, a great tour, the little dangling behind Macher is not recommended for racing bikes, as half of it is unsurfaced, so it is better to continue straight on the main road towards Puerto del Carmen

The road between Tachiche and Nazareth has been resurfaced, runs great and is a nice alternative to the classic Famara circuit

February 12, 2025,Caleta de Famara - La Santa - Timanfaya

Today's final tour took us to Caleta de Famara and on the way back through the Timanfaya National Park again, this time without stopping to take photos. To avoid the many cars, buses and trucks on the LZ-2, I turned off onto the LZ-30 after Uga. The climb through the wine-growing region is beautiful, but also quite exhausting in the …
