La Palma reopens one of its most famous routes to the public: the
Route of the Volcanoes

After having been closed as a result of the volcanic eruption, the Isla Bonita offers hikers this route that allows them to discover
a completely different part of the island
, in contrast to its green north.
The opening has been enabled respecting
certain conditions.
To access the starting point by car, take the LP-301 road from San Isidro (Breña Alta, to the east of the island) in the direction of
Refugio del Pilar.
The trail begins at the Birigoyo firewall (water reservoir).

variety of landscapes
so typical of La Palma.
The Route of the Volcanoes allows you to reach heights that offer the hiker unique views.
