LANZAROTES VOLCANO'S

Lanzarote, one of the Canary Islands (Spain) is covered with a large amount of small vulcano cones and craters. Between 1730 and 1736 a large eruption covered several villages with lava and ash. The lavafields and its volcanoes Montanas del Fuego form a national park  Parque Nacional Timanfaya . The lack of moist gives the parque a unique flora and fauna. The whole island is caracterised by the enormous variaty of landscapes. Below you will find some examples.
