The San Antonio volcano in the south of La Palma (crater depth 104 m, crater rim height 632 m, 3200 years old) is one of the younger volcanoes on the island.
You can park near the crater and circle about half of the crater rim on an easy footpath.
In search of a favorable location I found above the crater on a small hill near a bodega. On the horizon, the island of El Hierro appears in the morning mist under a narrow cloud.
Der im Süden von La Palma liegende Vulkan San Antonio (Kratertiefe 104 m, Kraterrandhöhe 632 m, 3200 Jahre alt) gehört zu den jüngeren Vulkanen auf der Insel.
Man kann in der Nähe des Kraters parken und ca. die Hälfte des Kraterrandes auf einem leichten Weg zu Fuß umrunden.
Auf der Suche nach einem günstigen Aufnahmestandort wurde ich oberhalb des Kraters auf einem kleinen Hügel in der Nähe einer Bodega fündig. Am Horizont taucht im Morgendunst unter einer schmalen Wolke die Insel El Hierro auf.
