Lanzarote
In Lanzarote, there are 13 sites marked as Protected Natural Spaces. In addition to Timanfaya National Park, the island also has an integral nature reserve, Los Islotes, and two natural parks: Chinijo Archipelago and Los Volcanes, five natural monuments: La Corona, Los Ajaches, Cueva de los Naturalistas, Islote de los Halcones and Montañas del Fuego, two protected landscapes: Tenegüime and La Geria, and two Sites of Scientific Interest: Jameos del Agua and Salinas del Janubio.
A popular trail among locals is the Ruta de Guinate, which leaves from the village of Ye, in Haría. It is a somewhat challenging circular route that crosses the Volcano of La Corona, one of the tunnels that form the Jameos del Agua, and returns to the starting point. It can last up to eight hours, though it is also possible to do it in sections.
