Lanzarote, amidst landscapes of lava and silence? This is how our invitation to climb the Calder\u00f3n Hondo Volcano starts, one of those routes that once you do it, you know you will never forget it.<\/p>\n<p>In this article of Viajeros Canallas we are going to tell you in detail why this experience in Fuerteventura deserves a place on your list, how to prepare it, what you will see and how to integrate it with our 2026 trips to the north of the island.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%c2%bfpor_que_esta_ruta_es_imprescindible\"><\/span>Why is this route a must?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When we visit Fuerteventura, we always ask ourselves: \u201cAnd which trail will make us vibrate?\u201d And without a doubt, the ascent to the Calder\u00f3n Hondo Volcano is among the favourites for several reasons:<\/p>\n<p>Because the volcanic cone of Calder\u00f3n Hondo is very well preserved, with a height of 278 m and a crater about 70 m deep.<\/p>\n<p>Because the route is accessible for many levels, even for families or people who are not regular hikers.<\/p>\n<p>Because the views from the top are spectacular: you will see Fuerteventura, the sea, the neighbouring islands, the volcanic badlands... a unique combo.<\/p>\n<p>Because it is in the north of the island, near the village of Lajares, which makes it an excellent half-day excursion or combined with other activities.<\/p>\n<p>For us at Viajeros Canallas, when we plan our first group trips to Fuerteventura (starting in 2026) we want this route to be included as a \u201cmust experience\u201d. We will include it in the programme because it combines nature, emotion, landscape and accessibility.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"detalles_tecnicos_de_la_ruta_%c2%bfque_esperar\"><\/span>Technical details of the route: what to expect?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"punto_de_partida_y_acceso\"><\/span>Starting point and access<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>From the village of Lajares (municipality of La Oliva) take the road towards Majanicho until you reach the turn-off onto the dirt track Camino Calderas, which takes you to the car park near the volcanic cone.<\/p>\n<p>For those who rent a car in Fuerteventura, it is convenient; for those who travel with us in a group, we consider it in the logistics and you will have the car included.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"distancia_desnivel_y_duracion\"><\/span>Distance, slope and duration<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The circular route (or round trip) is about 4.5-5 km and takes about 1 to 1.5 hours to complete at a leisurely pace.<\/p>\n<p>The gradient is moderate: at the beginning it is comfortable, and near the top it is a little more noticeable.<\/p>\n<p>If you are in normal shape, it is not \u201ca beating\u201d, but it brings the satisfaction of crowning.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ruta_recomendada\"><\/span>Recommended route<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A good option is to leave the car, follow the well-marked trail, climb up the southern slope (less steep than the western slope) to the summit, look out over the crater and, if you feel like it, walk around the crater rim (approx. 1.3 km extra) to enjoy the 360\u00ba views.<\/p>\n<p>A few tips: good shoes, water, sun protection and don't forget to stop and contemplate at the top.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"que_veras_y_momentos_clave_que_no_olvidaras\"><\/span>What you'll see and key moments you won't forget<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The perfectly defined crater from above: you will look down into the volcanic cone, about 70 m deep.
