Activities at Teguise

Experience between history and nature: the Vega of San José

One of the little-known areas of Lanzarote, not far from the old capital. A corner full of history and with an important ethnographic heritage.

From the outskirts of Teguise we start walking along part of the historic path that linked Orzola with Playa Blanca. Depending on the season in which you do the experience, the vegetation changes in a surprising way, a sign of the fertility of these lands, which are covered with a green mantle after a few days of rain.

The first stop will be where the old Cortijo de San José and the hermitage of the same name were located. Here we discover the history of the modern era of Lanzarote, its religious traditions, but also the rural reality of the island of volcanoes.

We continue crossing the valley and we will have the opportunity to talk about the different systems of growing crops used by the farmers of Lanzarote.

Flora and geology come together to fill this corner with a special magic. Natural species that grow on land that is formed by the accumulation of sedimentary material from the erosion of the Famara Massif.

In the second part of the walk, a spectacular surprise awaits us before arriving at LTeguise and discovering the lime kilns and another of the hermitages of the ancient capital of Lanzarote.

Once in Teguise, we will take the opportunity to taste its typical cuisine or to visit the art gallery or the small artisan shops.

RURAL WOMEN IN LANZAROTE

Appearances often deceive us and there are corners of the island where agriculture is still important.

Crops of potatoes, vines or tomatoes are hidden among paths that surround the volcanoes in one of the most rural areas of Lanzarote, far from the masses and with great heritage wealth.

In the municipality of Teguise, between the towns of Tiagua and Muñique, surrounded by jable (sand) and rofe (ash), one of the emblematic craters of the area rises: Montaña Timbaiba.

A route of just over 2 km, of easy level that takes us to discover the agricultural essence of the island and the role of the peasant women of these towns.
