CONNECT WITH THE LANDSCAPE

Lanzarote is also known as the island of volcanoes, a land historically marked by eruptions and a landscape transformed by nature.

The landscape of Lanzarote underwent its greatest change after the Timanfaya eruptions of the 18th century. After six long years of destruction and devastation, life resurfaced among lava and ash. It was the hand of Man who knew how to transform the landscape, giving us today something unique in the world.

THE LANDSCAPE AND THE MAN

Thanks to the immense work, perseverance and desire to move forward, the men and women of Lanzarote knew how to take advantage of a natural disaster.

Where before there was destruction, now life returns to its course, and everything begins again.

Today, a peculiar landscape is born from lava, ashes and destruction: vines that grow between lava flows or in the midst of large amounts of ash.

THE ROUTE

Two-hour circular route that allows us to enjoy unique landscapes: lava, ashes and unique vineyards in the world.

From the town of Maasdache we discover how man knew how to give new life to a place devastated by eruptions.

Ideal for the whole family.

The water for Lanzarote

With an average rainfall of 120mm, the island of Lanzarote is considered dry and arid.

Despite the lack of rain Lanzarote became - along with Fuerteventura - the burn of the Canary Islands. The cereal fields occupied a large part of the land and Lanzarote could to export them to the other islands, to produce the gofio and to supply its entire population.

There were several attempts to search for natural aquifers and many works were attempted to supply water to an entire island.

How to get water

It is true that since the beginning of the 60s of the last century, Lanzarote has had a desalination plant to supply its water. But before, starting in the 1940s, attempts were made to create a natural water channeling network. It was when the galleries in Famara or the wells in Montaña Blanca began to be built. All works that had no results because the amount of water was never enough.

The power of social networks

We are more and more hooked on social networks, and more and more we let ourselves be influenced by them.

The choice of our destinations also depends on the popularity it has in the media, who has been to the place and the likes that certain publications have.

We let ourselves be guided by the photos, by the beauty that these dream places transmit, but we often do not know the story behind the photo.
