Lanzarote Travel Guide: The Warm European Winter Destination to Know | Vogue

"Shaped by early 18th-century eruptions, the geysers and blackened, desert-like surfaces here epitomize Lanzarote’s harsh volcanic landscape; time in Timanfaya National Park feels steeped in a distinctly historic, almost prehistoric mood." - Monica Mendal

"Part of Lanzarote’s UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, the 52-square-kilometer volcanic Timanfaya National Park is known for its Montañas del Fuego (Fire Mountains), where subsurface temperatures reach up to 1,100 degrees Fahrenheit (593 degrees Celsius). Eruptions as recent as the 18th century have produced a Death Valley-like lava landscape. The artist César Manrique designed a tourist center here as well as the El Diablo restaurant that uses geothermal heat to cook traditional Canarian dishes."

Amazing! Regarding queues: Friday end of November, we came at 09:00, no waiting time at all. We left closer to 12:00 and .... also almost no cars in the queue (~15-20 mins is nothing but observing a great views).. seems no needs to wake up too early in a low season. We haven't booked online as there were no slots left and seems it's not needed at all. Important: if you come early in the morning to avoid queues, be aware you won't try a lava cooked chicken (it's opens at 12). Overall time to visit the park ~ 1-1.5 hour. Absolutely must see place. Even staying in a queue this is must see in Lanzerote.

Great experience. Camel ride cost less than €12 for about 20 minutes up and down the mountain. Kids really enjoyed it. Would recommend. Camels looked very well cared for. Tour guide was a very pleasant man.

I had an unforgettable experience at Timanfaya National Park—it truly felt like a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. The bus tour through the volcanic landscapes was both thrilling and a little bit scary, making it all the more exciting. Driving through the craggy lava fields, it felt like stepping into another world—black volcanic rock stretching as far as the eye can see, smoke gently rising from the earth, and the contrast of the bright blue sky above. As the day shifted and shadows grew, the landscape took on a mysterious, almost otherworldly beauty. After the tour, we planned to try the restaurant famous for cooking food using volcanic heat. Unfortunately, it was closed when we arrived. However, the staff were incredibly kind and went out of their way to help us. They checked the kitchen and graciously prepared two plates of food just for us. I am especially grateful to the gentleman who made this wonderful experience possible. Everywhere you look in Timanfaya National Park, the scenery is breathtaking—the interplay of lava, sky, and sunlight makes you feel like you’ve been transported to another planet. The combination of thrilling tours, incredible natural beauty, and warm, helpful people makes visiting Timanfaya an experience you will never forget. If you have the chance, you absolutely should go—you’ll be amazed.

Went on a Jet2 trip. Picked up by coach collected others enroute and guide on the bus provided a wealth of information about the park. Provided with access to a limited area where you could walk and take pictures. Three course meal provided in the restaurant as the sun setting.

Great experience, well organized, it was not dificult to buy the tickets in the entrance, just same time as if we had already tickets as there is a queue of cars for all in the entrance (at least in the day we were there). Tip: during the bus road sit in the opposite side of the driver, you will have the best view of the vulcanos.

We visited this national park as part of a tour. From what I understand, you can’t freely drive around the park in a private car—you need special approval, which is why most vehicles we saw on the tracks were tour buses. However, the main museum and restaurant can be reached by private car. The park itself is incredible, with spectacular views, and I highly recommend going with a tour guide who can share insights about the magma levels, volcanoes, and historic eruptions

My daughter and I arrived on a scooter and that is definitely the way to do it - the queue for cars was long but we zipped past. The coach trip was fascinating and a really unique experience but take note - if you suffer from travel sickness, it's 40 minutes of the windiest twistiest roads you've ever been on. The restaurant with food cooked over the volcano was really nice and not pricey (which we had feared) and not too busy. For 5 stars then something would need to be done about the queuing and the entry price could be more reasonable.

Timanfaya National Park Perfect place for all the family. Take the bus around the volcano and the larger volcanic fields. GeasersI recently visited Timanfaya National Park 🌋 and it was an amazing experience for everyone! Taking a bus tour around the volcano and vast volcanic fields gave me a real appreciation for the unique landscape. I was fascinated by the raw power of nature, which is on display everywhere in the park. It's a fantastic place for the whole family, with something to amaze all ages. I would highly recommend visiting this beautiful place. #TimanfayaNationalPark #VolcanoAdventure #FamilyTrip
