Thursday 26th January 2012


We cycled up to Timanfaya (Fire Mountain), and then went on a coach tour of the volcano park. At the top volcano the molten lava is only meters below the surface and you can feel the heat rising up. There is a restaurant cooking meat on a grill above the hole in the ground. There is also a little public barbecue where you can cook your own food from the heat of the volcano. If you put your hand in the cracks in the stone walls around the area you can feel the heat. It's quite amazing.

We can thoroughly recommend the Canary Islands. It's very cycle friendly and very peaceful, and the local food is excellent.
