Janubio: salt pans and white gold in Lanzarote
A tribute hiking to the people of Lanzarote
I invite you to an exciting family walk at sunset through the Janubio area, where natural beauty combines with the history and traditions of Lanzarote.
The women have been the ones who spent entire days in the salt pans while the men spent months fishing. Women and children were in charge of having the “white gold” ready for the moment when the men arrived ashore with their boats full of fish.
Hard work, enduring the heat, the wind and the few rains; manual work from its collection to its drying process.
Discover what the work of the salt pans in Lanzarote was and is like. Also marvel at the landscapes dotted with golden tones as you discover the diversity of plants and animals that inhabit this unique ecosystem.
An adventure for the whole family, full of learning and wonder.
