Resumen

In the Canary Islands, sixteen historical eruptions have been documented in Lanzarote,Tenerife, El Hierro, and La Palma. The latest eruption, the Tajogaite eruption, occurred in 2021 inLa Palma and the richness and diversity of natural and cultural heritage associated with this eruption can be a valuable resource for attracting visitors and tourists. The main aim of this work is toselect Sites of Geo-Tourist Interest (SGIs) in order to create geo-itineraries. The methodology usedis based on fieldworks and drone flight videos and photos taken during and after the eruption.Sixteen SGIs have been selected and studied. Eleven sites represent geoheritage of the Tajogaiteeruption and seven sites are related to the surrounding natural and rural landscapes. In the nearfuture, geo-itineraries (for in-person and virtual visits) will be created for visitors to La Palma andfor the interested online audience.
