Volcanic Peaks & Craters

Timanfaya National Park’s landscape was primarily shaped by the cataclysmic eruptions of 1730–1736, which covered a third of Lanzarote in basalt and ash. This collection features the most prominent cinder cones and calderas within the park’s boundaries. These geological formations, including the deep crater of Caldera del Corazoncillo and the jagged silhouette of Pico Partido, illustrate the island's volcanic evolution and ongoing geothermal activity.

A

Montaña de Timanfaya

Central volcanic peak within the national park, representative of the massive 18th-century eruptions that reshaped Lanzarote's topography.

B

Montañeta de los Mudos

Small volcanic cone situated in the northern section of the park's protected volcanic field.

C

Caldera Quemada del Nido del Guirre

Volcanic crater featuring scorched basaltic walls, part of the extensive chain of vents in the Timanfaya region.

D

Caldera Quemada de Abajo

Lower volcanic crater characterized by its dark, burnt appearance and proximity to the main lava flows.

E

Caldera Quemada del Mirador

Volcanic vent located near scenic viewpoints, showcasing the stark contrast between volcanic ash and solidified lava.

F

Caldera Quemada de Arriba

Upper volcanic crater within the Timanfaya complex, formed during the historic six-year eruption period starting in 1730.

G

Montaña del Valle de la Tranquilidad

Peak overlooking a vast, flat expanse of volcanic ash known for its acoustic silence and lack of vegetation.

H

Caldera de los Cuatro Fondos

Complex volcanic structure featuring multiple depressions or "bottoms" within a single crater system.

I

Montaña de los Camellos

Volcanic formation located near the park's camel trekking station, historically used as a landmark for local transport.

J

Montaña del Balcón

Elevated volcanic peak providing a natural vantage point over the surrounding malpaís (badlands) and lava fields.

K

Montaña Rodeos

Reddish volcanic cone accessible via the Tremesana guided walking route, showcasing oxidation and varied mineral compositions.

L

Montaña Rajada

Also known as the "Cracked Mountain," this formation features a significant lateral fissure caused by the weight of cooling lava.

M

Caldera del Corazoncillo

One of the deepest and most perfectly formed craters in the park, created during the early stages of the 1730 eruptions.

N

Pico Partido

Distinctive "split" volcano known for its broken crater wall, which exposes the internal geological layers of the cone.
