Lanzarote is truly extraordinary. Its fate was decided two and one-half centuries ago, when the largest volcanic eruption in recorded history took place, leaving a strange and alluring countryside in its wake, a landscape littered with volcanoes and dark streams of jagged lava.
This is the backdrop to nearly every scene on the island, and intriguing sights abound, none more so than the Fire Mountains .
As for hiking in Lanzarote, there is no better place in the Canaries for just strolling; trekkers will be in their element here. Each of the walks in this book takes you to a different corner of the island and shows you a scenically different outlook. But if walking is not your favourite pastime, then do explore Lanzarote by car.
Whatever your age or ability we've got some glorious walks and car tours to ensure you have a memorable holiday in Lanzarote. Whether you tour the region by car or explore on foot, we look forward to showing you around.
Since 1983 people out walking in sunny climes have been relying on our ‘little blue books’ to follow the trails – and to make friends with other walkers. Sunflower started by exploring the Atlantic Islands, but has branched out: we still love islands – from the Azores to Zakynthos – but we cover many mainland destinations too, like land-locked Switzerland and the coastal Basque Country. All our guides have the familiar mix of car tours, walks and picnics. More recently, we introduced restaurants and recipes in our ‘Walk & Eat’ series, which explores around cities from Stockholm to Avignon.
