Lanza 2029. Day 4…
Today started with a little bit of a thick head after last night’s over indulgence ? Despite our lethargy we still managed to pick the hire car up at 9:30.
Today’s plan was to explore the north end of the island, driving through lava fields to Orzola.
Once out the bussel of Costa Teguise buildings were replaced with a lunar landscape of lava. Beautiful in a barren way…
Where the road met the sea we pulled over to take in the view of a small bay. The the girls got chatting to a couple who recommended we visit the following:
- The Secret Forest. https://lanzaroteinformation.co.uk/lanzarotes-secret-forest-bosque-de-haria/
- Curve de Los Verdes lava tubes near Punta Mujeres.http://www.cactlanzarote.com/en/cact/cueva-de-los-verdes/
We left the bay for Orzola where we had a lovely walk to a deserted beach shown below. What a contrast to the tourist beaches…
After the walk we had lunch in a cafe before setting off for the Lava tubes.
For 9€ each we had a guided tour of a 1km section of the 7km long lava tube. Very impressive – photos below…
