Views of Playa Blanca

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the crater rim you have a great and impressive view of Playa Blanca, across to the Papagayo beaches...
If you walk around the edge of the crater, there are more great views in all directions ;-).

Red Mountain

Highlight • Volcano

The southernmost volcano in Lanzarote and one of the most visited due to its proximity to Playa Blanca and the relative simplicity of the route. You can go around the entire perimeter of its caldera to observe 360 views of the surroundings and also descend inside the cone.

The interior of Lanzarote's volcanoes often contrasts with the landscapes that surround them. Rainwater accumulates in the calderas and vegetation can grow in more comfortable conditions, although it also depends on the time of year. Cereals have been cultivated in some calderas in the past.

Trail Reviews

Ralf
May 9, 2024, Lanzarote - Vom Atlantik zur Caldera des Montaña Roja - Trailrunning

The short trail starts directly by the sea at a staircase below the beach promenade. The run leads uphill, initially moderately through a built-up area, later somewhat steeply along an unpaved trail to the crater of the almost 200 m high Montaña Roja, a small volcano on the Atlantic coast. With magnificent views of the surrounding area, you can walk around the crater rim as many times as you like. There is also a path through the middle of the caldera. Once you've completed enough laps, you can walk back down the same path to the Atlantic Ocean.
