On the same day that Fagradalsfjall in Iceland subsided, the Cumbre Vieja volcano on La Palma cracked open a new crater and roared into life on 19 September 2021. But this is no friendly flowing volcano like the gentle Fagradalsfjall. Cumbre Vieja Natural Park offers stunning hiking routes amongst volcanic cones and giant craters. Now that this fierce volcano has settled down again, the Cumbre Vieja Ruta de los Volcanes (Volcano Route) is one of the finest walks you can do on La Palma.

After more than a year of intense rumbling, the greatest show on Earth took off in Iceland in March 2021. Reykjanes kicked into action and coughed up a new volcano in Geldingadalur, a secluded valley below Fagradalsfjall. What followed is a series of breathtaking events so incredible it has blown the minds of many people around the world. Multiple craters appeared, erupting simultaneously, until one of them took over and turned into a giant lava geyser. It’s one of the most versatile eruptions the world has ever witnessed. Read all about the extraordinary Fagradalsfjall volcano (and how to get there) in this extensive article.
