# 10 days in Lanzarote: the heart of the island > The centre of Lanzarote deserves several days of visiting all on its own, there is so much to see and do! It is definitely a rich region that deserves some time to discover the more "rural" soul of Lanzarote. Source: https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/en/blog/10-days-in-lanzarote-heart-of-the-island/ Published on 14 January 2020 The **centre of Lanzarote** deserves several days of visiting all on its own, there is so much to see and do! It is definitely a rich region that deserves some time to discover the more "rural" soul of Lanzarote. So here in detail are all the places we were able to explore during our stay on the island... ## What to see in the centre of Lanzarote ### Discovering the volcanoes... #### Timanfaya National Park To be honest, we were very hesitant about visiting this **Timanfaya National Park**... after reading plenty of opinions on blogs, we were torn between wanting to discover this must-see spot on the island ("_We're here, let's do it. We won't be back any time soon!_ "), which looked so touristy though ("_Is it really worth it?_ "). Well, even after our visit, we're still in two minds! We don't regret being curious, but we wouldn't recommend it 100% as an essential thing to do in Lanzarote. At the entrance to the park there is a toll booth where you pay the entry fee: we paid **24€ for the two of us**. Then you have to drive a while to reach a summit... and a huge car park where the staff tell you exactly where to park. Everything is measured to the millimetre and you quickly feel like you've landed in a tourist factory. This is where we came across the most people, by the way... ![Tarmac road crossing a dark crater in Timanfaya](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-02-195f5a8e.webp) ![Plain of red lapilli and volcanic cones on the horizon](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-03-80e42fa4.webp) ![Vast field of brown lava sloping down towards the sea](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-04-92b8cd3a.webp) Once you arrive on site, in the middle of the crowd, you wonder where to go and what to do. The entry ticket entitles us to a **45 minute bus tour through the volcanoes** (to preserve the site, no cars are allowed to drive around), and to a few **demonstrations** linked to the volcanoes. Up there you'll also find a shop and a panoramic restaurant that cooks its meat with the heat of the volcano's lava: we didn't want to have lunch there, it looked far too much like a restaurant packed with tourists. After searching and asking several people, we finally found the white bus (parked opposite the shop) that takes us on a tour of the volcanoes. That's the part we preferred during this visit, because the landscapes are really impressive! Unfortunately, the bus's tinted windows don't do the photos any favours... At the end of the ride, we watched the famous demonstrations, which consist of lighting a fire with the heat of the volcano and creating a geyser with the pressure. Nothing mind-blowing but it's worth seeing if you're there. ![Succession of flattened craters in a turquoise light](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-05-87c6cf1b.webp) ![Volcano flank carpeted with green lichen and ash](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-06-c7e03535.webp) ![Perfectly circular crater overlooking the ocean in the distance](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-07-18ab9ac2.webp) ![Visitors on an ochre path at the edge of a lava pit](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-08-9b0fa7f5.webp) ![Brushwood set alight by the heat of the volcanic ground](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-09-6ba8b3ad.webp) ![Guide setting off a geyser of water above the burning ground](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-10-78e71895.webp) We spent a little time away from the crowd, contemplating this lunar landscape with the sea in the background, and taking photos to keep a memory of this park we had hesitated to visit. It has to be said that the view is still spectacular... #### Mancha Blanca Interpretation Centre To find out more about how this volcanic island was formed, we went to the **visitor and interpretation centre of Timanfaya National Park**, located in Mancha Blanca. Entry to the centre is free and gives access to a museum section, a panoramic terrace above the lava flow that took place in Lanzarote from 1730 to 1736, a screening room and even the simulation of an eruption. It's a very interesting place that gives you all the keys to understanding the various volcanic eruptions that shaped Lanzarote, but also all the wildlife and plants found on the island. We recommend it! ![Man standing on a steel walkway in the middle of the lava](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-11-4c3f7c4a.webp) ![White facade of the Mancha Blanca visitor centre](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-12-eebd03e5.webp) ![Flow of black blocks in front of a distant cone](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-13-74302d5a.webp) ![Woman posing on the rusty walkway of the lava trail](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-14-a736d44c.webp) #### Montaña Colorada For our first hike, we chose the **Caldera Colorada**, located on the **LZ-56**. The volcano takes its name from its reddish colour. Rated easy, this walk takes us around the volcano in about an hour. Information panels are dotted along the hike and tell us about the plant life, the history of the place and even the geology. Here again, we didn't come across many people! ![Small grey and white bird perched on a volcanic rock](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-15-06792021.webp) ![Woman leaning against a volcanic bomb in front of Montaña Colorada](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-16-82667535.webp) ![Ash path leading towards the isolated volcanic bomb](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-17-fb5dfd72.webp) ![Path running along the red flank of Montaña Colorada](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-18-e46295e2.webp) ![Dirt track winding towards an orange cone](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-19-7687ac20.webp) ![Lava field bristling with dark blocks and bluish volcanoes](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-20-3926e1f8.webp) #### Cuervo Volcano Still on the **LZ-56** is the **Cuervo volcano**, which you can discover on a hike (_easy level!_). We went in the morning so as not to run into too many people. In the car park, a map of the site shows the circuit to follow and the various points of interest you discover all along the hike (about 1h30). What makes this one special is that you go right inside the volcano's crater, which is pretty impressive! We highly recommend this walk, which we really liked, because it lets you enjoy a landscape different from that of Montaña Colorada. ![Wide ash track under a sky heavy with cumulus clouds](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-21-a0f921b3.webp) ![Black cone breached by a gap in the middle of a green plain](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-22-60b8d39f.webp) ![Inside the caldera with its jagged rock walls](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-23-6768b8d7.webp) ![Rocky passage opening onto the inside of the crater](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-24-4855d57b.webp) ![Slope of grey ash climbing towards the rim of the crater](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-25-abd10f30.webp) ![Cuervo volcano rising above a plain of lava](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-26-0340c2fb.webp) ![Couple embracing on the path at the bottom of the caldera](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-27-a5313cd0.webp) ![Woman sitting on a block of lava in the grey plain](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-28-cb0dc735.webp) ### By the sea... #### Tenesar After visiting the Timanfaya National Park Interpretation Centre, we took a small road to get to **Tenesar**, a tiny village on the north coast of the island. We had spotted [this viewpoint](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Tenesera+Lanzarote/@29.08322,-13.7256987,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0xc4618014964a109:0x2702d2180a94eb7a!8m2!3d29.0832209!4d-13.723509) on the internet, which had an **end of the world feel**... To get there, the road from Mancha Blanca is magnificent, winding between the volcanoes and the lava, with a stunning view over the sea. We didn't come across a single car during our round trip: you'll definitely be alone there in low season! The viewpoint is on a dirt road, on the left, before heading towards the village of Tenesar. ![Narrow road winding between the lava flows towards the coast](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-29-61a598e6.webp) ![Wave bursting on the black rocks of the west coast](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-30-670adcb5.webp) ![Grey lava coastline edged by a milky ocean](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-31-4ab90c77.webp) ![Isolated white cube house facing the ocean](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-32-090cb7e8.webp) ![Couple with arms raised on a headland above the ocean](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-33-601a1e86.webp) #### Caleta de Famara We then hit the road towards the famous **Famara beach**, renowned for its high waves that attract surfers. The huge beach lies at the foot of immense cliffs. We went late in the afternoon, with fairly gloomy weather and a lot of wind, so we didn't really see the charm that so many people talk about on the internet or on social media... We probably should have gone back to discover the beach in a better light! ![Man walking on the sand facing the cliffs of Famara](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-34-e8360f52.webp) ![Red flag snapping in front of the cliff under a grey sky](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-35-9879357d.webp) ![Long beach at low tide at the foot of the cliffs](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-36-3edae4b6.webp) ![Ochre cliff plunging into the foam of the breakers](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-37-473c3ade.webp) ![Rocks and pools uncovered by the low tide](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-38-2f186a36.webp) ![Woman walking on the wet sand in front of the cliff](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-39-f1e293bd.webp) ### Inland... #### The vineyards of La Geria We couldn't wait to discover the landscape of the **La Geria** region, so praised in travel guides and on blogs as a different and exceptional landscape. And indeed, we were impressed by this very special wine growing, which you don't find on French soil. The **vines** are grown in a particular way following the volcanic eruptions that shaped the island. Deep holes have been dug, so that the vine can draw from the soil the moisture and coolness it needs. These holes are surrounded by dry stone walls that act as shelter against the wind. Ingenious! ![Black stone walls protecting the vines of La Geria](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-40-7eb1f626.webp) ![Hillside striped with rows of vines and white farmhouses](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-41-68a92e0a.webp) ![Dry stone half-moons dug into the black ash](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-42-85368963.webp) ![Brown volcano overlooking the vine plots in the ash](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-43-cc44b75b.webp) ![Entire slope covered with low walls facing a grey volcano](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-44-f00020af.webp) ![Isolated white bodega beside the wine route](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-45-e22be985.webp) All along the wine route in the heart of La Geria you'll find Bodegas, estates that most often combine museum, shop and tasting. As we don't drink wine, we didn't visit any of the bodegas, but we'd suggest [Bodega Stratus](https://stratvs.com/), which apparently has an exceptional cellar. ![Vine hollows lined up at the foot of two volcanoes](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-46-4cdf5dde.webp) ![White car and road sign at the edge of the vines](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-47-02035ee2.webp) ![Dry plain scattered with bushes in front of bluish cones](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-48-f32497bf.webp) ![Woman with arms outstretched on a ridge of black ash](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-49-9b98b607.webp) ![Two regular volcanic cones above the vine plots](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-50-56e0e4d3.webp) ![Couple at the edge of a black slope facing the panorama of the island](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-51-f74d9ec2.webp) #### Casa Museo del Campesino Located at the junction of the LZ-30 and the LZ-20, the **Casa Museo del Campesino** is one of the works of the artist César Manrique. It is a reconstruction of a traditional farming village, overlooked by a huge white statue (_Monumento a la Fecundidad_). It's better to come fairly early in the morning, because the tourist coaches arrive around 11am. This is also where you'll find a small local craft market, with a potter, a cheesemaker, a soap maker... a chance to bring back souvenirs typical of the island! ![White Cubist sculpture standing on a lava base](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-52-2794020b.webp) ![Upward view of the white volumes of the sculpture](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-53-b15a850e.webp) ![White monument overlooking a garden of agaves and cacti](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-54-55442ba5.webp) ![Stone staircase between white walls under a tall palm tree](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-55-d6dcdc97.webp) ![Curved walkway overhanging a patio dug into the rock](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-56-afdd63b1.webp) ![Terrace with green chairs in front of a whitewashed chimney](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-57-b6a9be6e.webp) ![Spiral staircase descending towards a shaded garden](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-58-0171f56f.webp) ![White courtyard with green woodwork and succulents](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-59-f22808bf.webp) ![Palm tree towering over the whitewashed roofs of the farm museum](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-60-9d2ef509.webp) #### Teguise **Teguise** is without doubt the most picturesque and prettiest town in Lanzarote! The town centre isn't very big but its pedestrian lanes are full of charm. When the weather is nice, the blue sky brings out the white of the town's low houses. We came twice, in particular to have lunch (_address at the bottom of the article_). In the middle of winter, there weren't many people in the streets, but apparently the town is packed in summer... ![White palace and bronze lions on the cobbled square of Teguise](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-61-05c2d71e.webp) ![Stone bell tower and bronze lion between the palm trees](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-62-081bbca5.webp) ![White street decked with bunting and busy with passers-by](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-63-31f5356e.webp) ![White shopfront with a turquoise cross and hanging parasols](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-64-270d3f3a.webp) ![Woman alone in the middle of the great square in front of the bell tower](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-65-1eaac4bf.webp) ![Cafe terrace in a white lane beneath the bunting](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-66-e03d3b52.webp) _Restaurants spotted but not tested_: [Hespérides](https://www.tripadvisor.fr/Restaurant_Review-g652122-d2290210-Reviews-Restaurante_Hesperides-Teguise_Lanzarote_Canary_Islands.html) (fine dining), [Queso Project ](https://www.tripadvisor.fr/Restaurant_Review-g652122-d15020386-Reviews-Cheese_Bar_Queso_Project_Teguise-Teguise_Lanzarote_Canary_Islands.html)(cheese shop and tapas bar) #### Castillo de Santa Barbara On the way out of Teguise, on the **LZ-10**, don't miss going up to the **Santa Barbara castle**, which houses the Piracy museum. For our part, we didn't visit the inside of this fortress, but we took a walk on the heights to get a stunning view over the surroundings. ![White village spread across the plain seen from the volcano](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-67-a2871ad9.webp) ![Woman sitting at the foot of the stone ramparts of the castle](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-68-342ca72a.webp) ![Panorama of ochre land from the rim of the crater](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-69-525d367c.webp) ![Couple posing in front of the cultivated fields below](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-70-62417329.webp) ![Expanse of cultivated plains stretching to the blue sea](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-71-1859d4be.webp) ![Squat castle set on the ridge of the volcano](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-72-6c2f791e.webp) #### Lagomar, Nazaret One of the must-see visits in the heart of the island is the **[LagOmar museum](http://www.lag-o-mar.com/)**, located in the small village of Nazaret, up on the heights. Entry costs **6€** per person. The villa, designed in part by César Manrique, is built right into the rock, in a volcanic stone quarry. For a few days it belonged to the actor Omar Sharif, who lost it playing bridge. This house is truly impressive for its volumes and its very lush outdoor spaces. Not to be missed! ![Turquoise pool at the foot of a cliff hollowed with galleries](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-73-a8f823ed.webp) ![Dragon tree planted in front of the white walls and the ochre rock](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-74-2bb0e1e9.webp) ![Rock arch overhanging the pool and its water jets](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-75-31b03dfe.webp) ![Man sitting on a white wall facing the plain](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-76-a2eedeeb.webp) ![Woman sitting on the white bench in front of the picture window](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-77-999426d3.webp) ![Woman sitting in the middle of a bed of flowering palms](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-78-0e24d0aa.webp) ![White house set into the ochre cliff of Nazaret](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-79-c1992262.webp) ![Water jets sparkling against the light above the pool](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-80-74d7b4f6.webp) ![Cacti lined up on a white terrace in full sun](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-81-7f374cd7.webp) #### The Tiagua windmill In the small town of **Tiagua**, we visited an old **windmill**, entry to which is free. You can go inside and climb up to the wheel on the first floor. It's not an essential visit but if you're coming from Famara beach, you can stop off on the **LZ-401**. ![White windmill with wooden sails on a stone base](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-82-f96279c3.webp) ![Volcanoes framed by the wooden door of the mill](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-83-5fda32b6.webp) ![Upward view of the sails of the Tiagua windmill](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-84-69b0ec13.webp) ## What to do in the centre of Lanzarote ### Horse riding For our second to last day in Lanzarote, we decided to treat ourselves to an activity we had never done together before: **a horse ride**! So we booked our ride with [Lanzarote a Caballo](https://lanzaroteacaballo.com/index_en.html), a ranch on the LZ-2 between Uga and Playa Quemada. We chose the "_Route to Mount Tinasoria_", lasting **1h30** (**40€** per person). It's an experience we absolutely loved: we felt like we were travelling differently, in a slower, more authentic way. As always in low season, there aren't many people, so it was just two couples and the guide on this ride. We highly recommend this place! ![Riders in single file on a dirt track seen from the saddle](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-85-e3368ea5.webp) ![Two riders side by side in front of the chain of volcanoes](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-86-5361e5f8.webp) ![Rider on a white horse in the middle of the black stones](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-87-08895b90.webp) ![Riders heading down towards a white village at the end of the day](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-88-33563d56.webp) ![Rider climbing an ochre track under the clouds](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-89-7808f495.webp) ![Vine plots and volcanoes glimpsed from the path](https://voyagesurlacomete.fr/photos/2026/10-jours-a-lanzarote-le-coeur-de-lile-90-db077961.webp) ## Our favourite place to eat in the centre of Lanzarote - [El Patio Creperie](https://www.tripadvisor.fr/Restaurant_Review-g652122-d1841482-Reviews-El_Patio_Creperie-Teguise_Lanzarote_Canary_Islands.html): a very good place in Teguise, on a quiet street. We had lunch twice on their terrace, among palm trees and bougainvillea. On the menu, cheese and charcuterie boards, bruschettas, savoury galettes and crêpes... at more than reasonable prices. ## What we thought of the centre of Lanzarote Here again, it's a region of the island we really liked, especially for the variety of landscapes you can come across! There is so much to see and do between the typical villages, the beaches, the vineyards, the hikes on the volcanoes, the museums linked to César Manrique... the heart of Lanzarote is rich and full of character. **We can only advise you to spend several days criss-crossing this region, without skipping Teguise, the works of César Manrique and of course the volcanoes!** Planning a trip to Lanzarote?

Les vignes dans les trous creusés au milieu de la lave doivent être assez typiques . Quant à la Casa museo del.Campesino et le musée Lagomar , les photos magnifiques donnent envie de les visiter - **Marie** (Voyage sur la comète), 18 April 2020 La région de la Geria est véritablement un incontournable à Lanzarote : les vignes valent le coup d’être vues; c’est certain ! 🙂
