The Volcano of San Antonio

Fuencaliente and volcanoes should be synonymous in the dictionary. Although the one found in Teneguía is also impressive too.

The volcano erupted in 1677, the municipality's water source. The spring that was trying to escape years ago for its exploitation. It has a visitors center that informs visitors of the volcano’s history with a video and thematic expositions.

There’s a bar before the entrance to go visit the crater if you need to recover you strengths before or after seeing Teneguía volcano and the entire Fuencaliente coast.

Camels give rides to visitors. Don’t think that they’ll be like the ones in Lanarote, but they’re camels nonetheless.

The San Antonio volcano is on the island of La Palma, where I was a few years ago, on a very special occasion. You could say that the island shows a great number of different natural spaces, from the coast to the elevated areas covered in woods and laurel or pine forests, to the uppermost mountainous areas with a continental climate.

For the cleanliness and clarity of the sky, it was chosen as the best place for a astrophysics complex, which lies on top of the Roque de los Muchachos (one of the viewpoints in Caldera de Taburiente).

Numerous volcanic mounds covered with old lava reminds us of the volcanic origin of the island, which also presents a charming landscape.
