What to expect

You'll set out from Parking Testeina at 09:55 and spend three hours navigating a relatively flat but rocky path through the reserve. The ground is uneven basalt throughout—nothing technical, but relentless underfoot. Your guide will explain the volcanic landscape as you walk. Expect to move at a steady pace with minimal stops. Bring plenty of water; only a cereal bar and fruit are provided. The route opens up views across the reserve's darker slopes and isolated peaks.

Good to know

Wear sturdy laced trainers or hiking boots without fail. Bring your own water bottle. You need moderate fitness; poor heart health isn't advised. Playa Blanca pickups aren't available. Tips aren't included. Public transport serves the area if you prefer independence.
