Atalaya de Femés

The Atalaya de Femés is one of those natural treasures every hiking enthusiast should discover in Lanzarote. Located in the Ajaches massif, this summit represents the highest point in the south of the island, offering a unique experience for those seeking to connect with the most authentic volcanic landscape. The climb to the telecommunications antennas crowning the peak is a demanding but deeply rewarding trek, where every step rewards you with spectacular panoramic views of the different valleys, the strait, and Lanzarote's southern tip.

Accessible around the clock, this natural viewpoint is perfect for those who prefer exploring on foot and enjoying the serenity of the heights. It's strongly recommended to ascend by walking, as the loose terrain and tracks aren't suitable for small vehicles or inexperienced mountain drivers. The reward at the top makes it all worthwhile: an infinite horizon where the sea and volcanic land merge into an unforgettable postcard. An essential spot for travelers seeking authentic experiences off the beaten path.
