The Volcán del Cuerno has not been the only tourist area in Lanzarote that has suffered from tourist overcrowding in recent days. The Tabaiba Collective has denounced that the Caldera Blanca trail in Tinajo has become a car park during the weekend. The collective has echoed the images in which you can see a path full of vehicles. "This is what the surroundings of the trail look like on any day in the low tourist season," he published on his Instagram account.

From Tabaiba they ask that visits be controlled urgently. "This is another path that already looks more like a pilgrimage than an activity in the middle of nature," they claim along with a video recorded on the spot.

The massification of visitors in the tourist areas of Lanzarote has "gone too far", according to reports from the collective. "We don't fit anymore", they have remarked on their social networks. In addition, they reveal with indignation the attitude of politicians towards the problem. "But not a single politician wants to miss the trips to Fitur, whatever their color."

Users have also been critical of the video and the massification that has been happening for months on the island, such as in El Volcán del Cuervo and in Las Grietas. "What a pity everything is destroyed by the human being, how beautiful is the silence of the volcanoes", commented one of them.
