No. The hiking and trekking routes in Lanzarote pass through natural volcanic areas and spectacular landscapes around Timanfaya, but do not enter the protected area known as the Mountains of Fire, where the geothermal demonstrations and the famous Volcanoes Route take place.

This central area of the National Park has restricted access and can only be visited by bus.

To explore the Mountains of Fire, see the geothermal demonstrations and take the Volcanoes Route by bus, we recommend booking an organised bus tour, as this usually includes entry to Timanfaya National Park and avoids the long queues that are common during the high season.
